Fun At Work
see how many of these you can do by the end of the day:
1. Run one lap around the office at top speed.
2. To signal the end of a conversation, clamp your hands over your ears and grimace.
3. When someone hands you a piece of paper, finger it, and whisper huskily, "Mmmmmmm, that feels soooooo good!"
4. Leave your zipper open for one hour. If anyone points it out, say, "Sorry, I really prefer it this way".
5. Walk sideways to the photocopier.
6. While riding in an elevator, gasp dramatically every time the doors open.
7. Say to your boss, "I like your style" and shoot him with double-barrelled fingers.
8. Babble incoherently at a fellow employee then ask, "Did you get all that, I don't want to have to repeat it."
9. Page yourself over the intercom (do not disguise your voice).
10. At the end of a meeting, suggest that, for once, it would be nice to conclude with the singing of the national anthem (extra points if you actually launch into it yourself).
11. Walk into a very busy person's office and while they watch you with growing irritation, turn the light switch on/off 10 times.
12. For an hour, refer to everyone you speak to as "Bob".
13. Announce to everyone in a meeting that you "really have to go do a number two".
14. In a meeting or crowded situation, slap your forehead repeatedly and mutter, "Shut up, damn it, all of you just shut up!"
15. Speak with an accent (French, German, Porky Pig, etc.) during a very important conference call.
16. Find the vacuum and start vacuuming around your desk.
17. Present meeting attendees with a cup of coffee and biscuit; smash each biscuit with your fist.
18. During the course of a meeting, slowly edge your chair towards the door.
19. Arrange toy figures on the table to represent each meeting attendee and move them according to the movements of their real-life counterparts.

Just raced down the hall and into my boss' office, flicked the light switch a few times, gave the double-barrel and announced "I like your style Bob." with a garbled scottish accent. She just looked at me impatiently and said, "And?" after which I ran at top speed down the hall and dove into my chair. Do I get extra points for multi-tasking?
