Inspirational Posters For The Cubicle Era

Rome did not create a great empire by having meetings,
they did it by killing all those who opposed them.

If you can stay calm, while all around you is chaos...then
you probably haven't completely understood the seriousness
of the situation.

Doing a job RIGHT the first time gets the job done. Doing
the job WRONG fourteen times gives you job security.

Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet
engines.

Artificial Intelligence is no match for Natural Stupidity

A person who smiles in the face of adversity...probably
has a scapegoat.

Plagiarism saves time.

If at first you don't succeed, try management.

Never put off until tomorrow what you can avoid altogether.

TEAMWORK...means never having to take all the blame yourself.

The beatings will continue until morale improves.

Never underestimate the power of very stupid people in
large groups.

We waste time, so you don't have to.

Hang in there, retirement is only thirty years away!

Go the extra mile. It makes your boss look like an
incompetent slacker.

A snooze button is a poor substitute for no alarm clock
at all.

When the going gets tough, the tough take a coffee break.

INDECISION is the key to FLEXIBILITY.

Succeed in spite of management.

Aim Low, Reach Your Goals, Avoid Disappointment

A true story. or as a pilot would say “this is no sh!t....
While flying a DC-3 into Detroit Metro airport and over the lake the fire warning went off on the #2 engine. Being a conservative sort , I checked the gauges and gave a look at the engine for signs of smoke and or fire,etc, seeing none we just silenced the alarm and notified Approach..
”Be advised that Freighter 808, has a Fire warning on #2 engine and requests priority handling, we may have a precautionary shut down on #2”
Approached replied ( in a VERY terse, Female ,Afro-American accent) “Are you declaring an emergency?”
We replied “Not at this time, but we’d like to get a little closer to the airport if you can arrange it”
Approach... “Stand By”
Just then the #1 engine coughed , gave a sputter and just quit !
I told approach “ Freighter 808” has just lost the #1 engine”
Approach, (Some what sarcastically ) “you mean #2 engine”
I replied “ No Mam’ that’s the one that’s on FIRE”
Approached replied “ YOU ARE CLEARED FOR AN IMMEDIATE APPROACH TO RUNWAY 27 LEFT”
