Murphy's Laws On Work

MURPHY'S LAWS ON WORK

- A pat on the back is only a few centimeters from a kick in the pants.

- Don't be irreplaceable, if you can't be replaced, you can't be promoted.

- The more crap you put up with, the more crap you are going to get.

- You can go anywhere you want if you look serious and carry a clipboard.

- Eat one live toad the first thing in the morning and nothing worse will happen to you the rest of the day.

- Never ask two questions in a business letter. The reply will discuss the one you are least interested in, and say nothing about the other.

- When the bosses talk about improving productivity, they are never talking about themselves.

- If at first you don't succeed, try again. Then quit. No use being a damn fool about it.

- There will always be beer cans rolling on the floor of your car when the boss asks for a ride home from the office.

- Mother said there would be days like this, but she never said there would be so many.

- Keep your boss's boss off your boss's back.

- This is what I'm doing wrong.

- Everything can be filed under "miscellaneous."

- Never delay the ending of a meeting or the beginning of a cocktail hour.

- To err is human, to forgive is not company policy.

- Anyone can do any amount of work provided it isn't the work he is supposed to be doing.

- Important letters that contain no errors will develop errors in the mail.

- The last person that quit or was fired will be the one held responsible for everything that goes wrong - until the next person quits or is fired.

- There is never enough time to do it right the first time, but there is always enough time to do it over.

- The more pretentious a corporate name, the smaller the organization. (For instance, The Murphy Center for Codification of Human and Organizational Law, contrasted to IBM, GM, AT&T ...).

- If you are good, you will be assigned all the work. If you are really good, you will get out of it.

- You are always doing something marginal when the boss drops by your desk.

- People are always available for work in the past tense.

- If it wasn't for the last minute, nothing would get done.

- At work, the authority of a person is inversely proportional to the number of pens that person is carrying.

- When you don't know what to do, walk fast and look worried.

- You will always get the greatest recognition for the job you least like.

- No one gets sick on Wednesdays.

- When confronted by a difficult problem you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question, "How would the Lone Ranger handle this?"

- The longer the title, the less important the job.

- Machines that have broken down will work perfectly when the repairman arrives.

- An "acceptable" level of employment means that the government economist to whom it is acceptable still has a job.

- Once a job is fouled up, anything done to improve it makes it worse.

- All vacations and holidays create problems, except for one's own.

Success is just a matter of luck, just ask any failure.

Milk Bath

Gloria the blonde once heard that milk baths would make you beautiful. She left a note for her milkman Alan to leave 15 gallons of milk.

When Alan read the note, he felt there must be a mistake. He thought she probably meant 1.5 gallons, so he knocked on the door to clarify the order.

Gloria came to the door, and Alan said:

- I found your note to leave 15 gallons of milk. Did you mean 15 gallons or 1.5 gallons?

Gloria said:

- I want 15 gallons. I'm going to fill my bathtub up with milk and take a milk bath.

Alan asked:

- Oh, alright, would you like it pasteurized?

Gloria replied:

- No, just up to my waist.

Soft and Hard

A man is in a hotel lobby. He wants to ask the clerk a question.

As he turns to go to the front desk, he accidentally bumps into a woman beside him and as he does, his elbow goes into her breast. They are both quite startled.

The man turns to her and says:

- Ma'am, if your heart is as soft as your breast, I know you'll forgive me.

She replies:

- If your penis is as hard as your elbow, I'm in room 436.

Doctor's Waiting Room

Two children are in a doctor's waiting room, and one of them is crying. "Why are you crying?" asked the other child. "I'm here for a blood test, and they're going to cut my finger." When he heard this, the other child started to cry. "Why are you crying?" "I'm here for a urine test."

Monkey Witness

A police officer came upon a terrible wreck where the driver and passenger had been killed. As he looked upon the wreckage a little monkey came out of the brush and hopped around the crashed car. The officer looked down at the monkey and said:

- I wish you could talk.

The monkey looked up at the officer and shook his head up and down.

- You can understand what I'm saying? - asked the officer.

Again, the monkey shook his head up and down.

- Well, did you see this?

- Yes - motioned the monkey.

- What happened?

The monkey pretended to have a can in his hand and turned it up by his mouth.

- They were drinking? - asked the officer.

- Yes.

- What else?

The monkey pinched his fingers together and held them to his mouth.

- They were smoking marijuana?

- Yes.

- What else?

The monkey motioned:

- Screwing.

- They were screwing, too? - asked the astounded officer.

- Yes.

- Now wait, you're saying your owners were drinking, smoking and screwing before they wrecked.

- Yes.

- What were you doing during all this?

- Driving - motioned the monkey.
