Some people have no sense of humour, also snitches get stitches

Posted on September 11, 2024 By admin

As part of moving out of our fixed, assigned office area to hot desks in an open space, we got allocated lockers. I wanted to keep a bit of personal touches by moving some of my wall decorations. Apparently my stick of compliance poster is not compliant, as someone brought it to the attention of my line manager, saying that it might not give a good impression to visitors.

My manager, actually having a sense of humour, gave me this advice: “you need an inspirational sentence (that doesn’t mean anything really) from a famous person (who never pronounced it)” and gave me his approval to put this up:

I love my boss.

Quote of the day

There are, it has been said, two types of people in the world. There are those who, when presented with a glass that is exactly half full, say: this glass is half full. And then there are those who say: this glass is half empty. The world *belongs*, however, to those who can look at the glass and say: What's up with this glass? Excuse me? Excuse *me*? This is my glass? I don't *think* so. My glass was full! *And* it was a bigger glass!
--(Terry Pratchett, The Truth)
