Tom Bullweed Posted February 2, 2017 Posted February 2, 2017 The moral(e) of this post is that you can never please management. If you actually did please them once, the bar is now raised to a completely unachievable level. 1 Quote

Widder, SASS #59054 Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 Mgmt never understands and at oft times, looks down their noses at US working class folks. Like one Christmas, our office had a party where everyone brought a dish from home with a favorite 'recipe'. Well, I happen to have an ole oriental recipe that I thought would really enlighten everyones holiday spirits. During the luncheon, a couple folks enquired as to the flavorful dish I brought from home and I told them it was...'Tennessee Long Tail Rabbit'. They said..... "Tennessee Long Tail Rabbit. Never heard of it". I looked at them and said..... "CAT". They just don't have a sense of humor..... ..........Widder Quote
Jimmy Reb, SASS #54804 Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 Widder, not at work,but at a church supper. We had a new pastor so I made chili for the pot luck supper. The pastors wife told me how much she like it. I looked at her with a deadpan face and said " I didn't know you liked squirrel. The look on her face was priceless. Quote
Widder, SASS #59054 Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 Squirrel always taste better if they are 'domestically raised' and you name em 'Kitty'. Here Kitty, Kitty..... ..........Widder Quote

Widder, SASS #59054 Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 When I worked for Civil Service, I had a terrific boss, who was actually Director, Civil Service. But she also knew that I would make up a bunch of stuff to tell everyone, as though she said it. I think she thought it was kinda funny and added a little flavor to the office. Anyhow, anytime I had to go to her office about anything, I would sometimes walk out of her office going backdown a hallway to my office and I would loudly tell everyone..... "Vicki says there won't be any pay raises until morale improves". ..........Widder Quote
