taste good with ketchup.

happen to you for the rest of the day.
·
When bosses talk about improving productivity, they are never talking
about themselves.

fool about it.
·

boss asks for a ride home from the office.

Anyone can do any amount of work provided it isn't the work he or she is
supposed to be doing.
·
Important letters that contain no errors will develop errors in the mail.
·
If you are good, you will be assigned all the work. If you are really
good, you will get out of it.

everything that goes wrong.
