    Better yet, show up in a Wonder Woman costume. In fact, show up every week in dressed as a different superhero.

    Nah... everyone needs to come in a coat and tie. Around 3 or 4, start looking at your watches... :)

      otaku are anime fans. Sailor Moon has stereotypical uniformed school girls. I hope I don't have to explain farther, you can probably google an image if you want but it won't be pretty.

        If your current employer doesn't care about your life well then you need a new employer. Life is to short to spend in a fabric covered box when you don't like what your doing. To be perfectly honest the happiest times in my life were when I was broke and unemployed.

                Yeah, I'm the "mate Norman", and they are business meetings ("information sessions")! The boss does give us a few beers at the end, but I'd rather be somewhere else.

                      My brother who is a grade 4 teacher and was once told by the school pricipal that he needed to get in touch with the feminine side of his personality. So the next day at school, being dress-up day, he arrived wearing a wig, makeup and a knee length dress complete with stuffed bra and panty hose. He topped the outfit off with some really nice heels, too. He now has a reprimand on file that he's actually quite proud of. But none of the pictures taken are allowed to be hung up at the school. :)

                          Have everyone show up with fishing rods and or golf clubs and changed in weekend wear and tap their toes continuously throughout the meeting and only give monosyllabic responses if directly questioned. Or go in early before the boss with multiple copies of help wanted ads for your industry with circled ads on them and scatter them about the meeting table then split and show up after everyone else.

                              Hmmm, yes. Well he was a Colonel in the army. And they do 2 things well: (1) give orders like a good tyrant, and (2) drink lots!

                                Thanks for the thread - I don't think I have EVER started a thread in the lounge. Maybe the "Sailor Sam" (or whatever it was) would work, but the tyrant might get the wrong idea!
