Weird crap from work
-
Everyone here at the office just got this "thing" that resembles the mutant child of a chrome golf club and one of the Martians from the "War of the Worlds" movie. It's a paperweight/paper holder, part of a morale boosting (:-D) thingy they call "Aiming for Excellence". The best use I can determine for it (as it will not support more than a few papers in the clippy thing at once) would be a small club, as the martian-like head provides a perfect handle, and the weight of the bottom is considerable... So, what's the weirdest doo-hickey you've ever gotten from work? :)

A bottle of bubbly :) (I don't drink and everyone knows that) If that thing is so heavy maybe you can "drop" on management's toes the next time they stop by your desk for a "chat" "Isn't there like a statue of limitations on that?" "Statute." "What?" "Statute of limitations. It's not a statue." "No, it's statue." "Fine, it's a sculpture of limitations." - Kramer and Jerry, in "The Cafe"

I think the pair of terry cloth house slippers is on the top of my list. I do not mind getting old. It beats all the other options that can think of.

Since I was taking the job as a Field Service Tech at the time. My ex boss thought I needed something for the road. She bought me a blow up doll, but not just any blow up doll. Considering I'm from the south she bought a dang sheep with a voice box. It was funny but infront of the whole store it was kinda embarrassing but I guess thats how people show Love :) Win32newb "Programming is like sex, make one mistake and you have to support it for a long time"
