Helpful Hint

Dennis!'s helpful hint of the day:

IF you find yourself working late in your office and everyone else appears to have gone home and you find yourself thinking, "Gosh, no one's here, I can do [insert generally embarrassing activity, like sing out loud, or surf for porn, or strip down to your skivvies] if I want to,"

THEN the proper response is to JUST SAY NO and go home. (Then do your embarrassing stuff there, in the privacy of your own home.)

Not that I have any first-hand knowledge of the application of this rule, of course.

Does photo-copying your ass count? (I did that... once. The receptionist found the jammed page the next morning). I swear, that WAS NOT my ass.

Well, at least you livened up the cleaning lady's day

Steve: Yes, photocopying your ass would, in fact, be one of those things you should stop yourself from doing when you think you're alone in the office. Of course, you can't do it at home, so perhaps you're just SOL.

Peter: I sense some doubt from you. I am appalled that you believe that I have first-hand experience with the unfortunate consequences of ignoring this rule.

Jon: I KNOW you think I actually have first-hand experience with the unfortunate consequences of ignoring this rule. *sigh*
