LOVE IT!!! SO FUNNY!!!! I love No 2. Can just totally see myself paging myself over the intercom and all the lawyers in the office thinking I've gone bonkers. Thanks for the laughs!

Okreally tempted on this one

Tell Your Children Over dinner. "due To The Economy, We Are Going To Have To Let One Of You Go."

Some of my favorite things to say at work:

Yes, I am an agent of Satan but my duties are largely ceremonial.

No, my powers can only be used for good.

I don't know what your problem is, but I bet it's hard to pronounce.

Ahh.. I see the f*-up fairy has visited us again.

I will always cherish the the initial misconceptions I had about you.

Very funny Paula! Why can't I ever remember things like this when the situation calls for it?

Not a hijack at all GrizGirl - those were GREATNESS!

I can't wait to use the two when I go out with my husband. He embarrases easily. I am litterally crying I laughing so hard. My husband is going to think I have really gone crzay. I already ask for my fries cooked dark like me (well that's when I used to eat fries).

Thanks so much for picking up my day.

These are my favorite! wiping tears of laughter I am posting just for the subscription so I can show my DH later.

THANK YOU PAULA for these.

Did anyone see the one that went around for awhile "Things to do in an elevator"? The only ones I can remember are:

1) Stare at the person standing next to you, when it gets really awkward, smile and say "I have new socks on".

2) Draw a box on the floor with chalk and tell everyone getting on that "This is MY space"

3) Move your desk into the elevator and demand to know from passengers if they have an appointment.

4) Scream "We're all going to DIE!!" and clutch the walls in panic every time the doors close and until they reopen.
