Eagles
may soar high, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines.
- Lack
of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part.
- There
may be no 'I' in team, but there's a 'ME' if you look hard enough.
- Process
and Procedure are the last hiding place of people without the wit and wisdom
to do their job properly.
- Remember
that age and treachery will always triumph over youth and ability.
- Never
do today that which will become someone elses responsibility tomorrow.
- Every
time you open your mouth you have this wonderful ability to continually
confirm what I think.
- Show
me a good loser and I'll show you a LOSER!
- Put
the key of despair into the lock of apathy. Turn the knob of mediocrity
slowly and open the gates of despondency - welcome to a day in the average
office.
- It's
the team that matters. Where would The Beatles be without Ringo? If John got
Yoko to play drums the history of music would be completely different.
- What
does a squirrel do in the summer? It buries nuts. Why? Cos then in winter
time he's got something to eat and he won't die. So, collecting nuts in the
summer is worthwhile work. Every task you do at work think, would a squirrel
do that? Think squirrels. Think nuts.
- When
confronted by a difficult problem, you can solve it more easily by reducing
it to the question, "How would the Lone Ranger handle this?"
- Accept
that some days you are the pigeon, and some days you are the statue.
- If
your boss is getting you down, look at him through the prongs of a fork and
imagine him in jail.
- If
you can keep your head when all around you have lost theirs, then you
probably haven't understood the seriousness of the situation.
- You
don't have to be mad to work here! In fact we ask you to complete a medical
questionnaire to ensure that you are not.
- If
you treat the people around you with love and respect, they will never guess
that you're trying to get them sacked.
- If
at first you don't succeed, remove all evidence you ever tried.
- You
have to be 100% behind someone, before you can stab them in the back.
- If
work was so good, the rich would have kept more of it for themselves.
- Those
of you who think you know everything are annoying to those of us who do.
- There's
no 'I' in 'team'. But then there's no 'I' in 'useless smug colleague',
either. And there's four in 'platitude-quoting idiot'. Go figure.
- Know
your limitations and be content with them. Too much ambition results in
promotion to a job you can't do.
- Make
good use of your cylindrical filing unit, the one you mainly keep under your
desk.
- Quitters
never win, winners never quit. But those who never win and never quit are
idiots.
- If
you're gonna be late, then be late and not just 2 minutes - make it an hour
and enjoy your breakfast.
- Remember
the 3 golden rules: 1. It was like that when I got here. 2. I didn't do it.
3. (To your Boss) I like your style.
- The
office is like an army, and I'm the field general. You're my footsoldiers
and customer quality is the WAR!!!
- Set
out to leave the first vapour trail in the blue-sky scenario.
- Statistics
are like a lamp-post to a drunken man - more for leaning on than
illumination.
- A
problem shared is a problem halved, so is your problem really yours or just
half of someone elses?
- Is
your work done? Are all pigs fed, watered and ready to fly?....
- You
don't have to be mad to work here, but you do have to be on time, well
presented, a team player, customer service focused and sober!!
- I
thought I could see the light at the end of the tunnel, but it was just some
b*stard with a torch, bringing me more work.
- Avoid
employing unlucky people - throw half of the pile of CVs in the bin without
reading them.
