How not to get ahead, and what not to post at your desk
How not to get ahead, and what not to post at your desk
(OP)
So I was under more than a little pressure and decided I needed a way to get out a little frustration... I stayed late on a Friday night and created a little flow chart to politely tell people to go away when I am facing a difficult deadline. I have never posted said chart.
Now, today I had the idea of generalizing this chart and injecting a little steroids. What you will find attached is WAY more acidic than the original, and if ONLY INTENDED FOR HUMOUR. I accept no responsibility for your loss of employment should you choose to actually post, or otherwise use, this thing!
Cheers,
YS

Very nice, but I don't think it's so bad as to get anyone into trouble. Pretty mild compared to things I have posted.

Queue instead of Cue?
Judicious instead of Judiscious?
Acidic? Barely...
more like tepid kool-aid than even lemonade, and hardly comparable to hydrochloric acid.

I worked with an engineer once that simply had large red words that said "GO AWAY!" when he was busy.

I fear that I am much too mild mannered, corporately ambitious and docile to post my handy work.
I do hope it finds a nice home. Next to the letter of protest regarding the switch to the Boston stapler in Milton's office would do nicely.
