Even More…Fun at the Office

In the last episodes: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7,
Michael: This morning, I knocked myself in the head with the phone.
Jim: [to camera] That actually took a while. I had to put- uh, more and more nickels into his handset until he got used to the weight, and then I just took them all out.
I have realized that I am the Jim Halpert of my office…and I’m fine with that. As a matter of fact there are some things he has helped me realize.
1) I have not been doing all that I can to make my workplace fun.
2) It sure would be nice to have a Pam. I could do wonders with someone who shared my level of apathy and my sense of humor. So here are some more Fun Things to Do At Work:
Black, Man and Bo-Bo
While at trainings I introduced my co-workers by the ghetto nicknames I have given them. People aren’t sure if they should call her Patrice, ‘Tricey or what.
Reading is Fundamental
I mentioned once how I made signs and taped them to my co-workers door. One day I noticed that She had taken the most recent two down. So I printed out every single one I had ever done and taped them in chronological order to her door.
Luh Da Kids!
Whenever children come in I rename them and try to give them sugar in some form. My most popular names are Thigh High, Gerberface, Rugrat, Crumbsnatcher and Short Round. I’m also fond of telling the kids how I will beat up someon who is 2 ft or more shorter than me without it weighing on my conscience. But most of all I tell the youngest one’s to break things cause they won’t be held liable for it.
YouTube
I search YouTube all day long and when I find anything that is funny I go and pull it up on co-workers computers with a note that says “press play”. When the boss asks what is so funny I feign ignorance and search for more ammo.
Honesty
For the last month when asked what to put on a flyer or use in a workshop or send in a mailing my response has been, “Sit down and shut your punk ass up.” I also got a dirty look when at a training and asked about methods I mentioned something about hitting kids in the throat and sitting on their chest. People also didn’t like me responding to a question about how to help clients remember that “Pain is the ultimate teacher“.
I’m the Youtube king in my department too…But I even send my to my boss…LOL…I’ll keep you posted

You Tube.com is the hot new toy on the block. It seems like you can get a video on anything from anytime man. We’re not allowed access to youtube.com from work, but I’m always forwarding links to folks so that they can forward on home to view for later. By the way, The Office is on point! Can’t wait until the new season starts
