Deadline Dodgers Gifts

Worker sees clock which says: In case of impossible deadline, break glass.

Calendar; 'Point of no return.'

'Nothing important. Just missing another deadline.'

"Worst case of month-end burnout I ever saw."

IRS. April 15th is the deadlie for filing your return, not a "best if used by" date.

Never leave kids unsupervised. They might goof off and miss their deadline.

'Thanks for rushing back in here on such short notice, Ms. Fern!'

Colour Version: Living by the Clock

"Russ had a novel published two hours ago and has a children's book coming out in 20 minutes."

'Today is the tomorrow I feared yesterday. . .'

'Don't worry about the company's pension plan. The way we work you, you'll be lucky to live that long!'

"The bags under my eyes have combined to form some kind of face backpack."

"Where are you guys going?" "We’re out of here!" "It’s October 28th!" "The new team are running late. We need you to stay until February 2025!" "But I’m tired!!" "How do we know they won’t bail on us again?"

"It's no good - I just can't do this without a brief and a deadline."

"I wanted a Meticulous Monday or a Thorough Thursday report. This reads more like a Frivolous Friday."

"I don't know what I'm going to do...my presentation is due on Monday and I haven't even started...I'm not sure I know how to speak."

'I dont know about you, but I've got the feeling we're in for long flight delays...'

'This is just an informal pledge that we all go through.'

The game is tied, and this is the final inning because the sun is setting. I understand, coach, I need to get home before dark!

Executive Asks Death To Wait

Pull and all nighter...

"Sure I can make that deadline."

The four housemen of procrastination

A deadline comes to chew up a worker.

The Graveyard of Past Deadlines

'Thanks for the invitation, but I can never seem to find the energy to party...'

Work avalanche

'We are in a race against time and the auditors. Gentlemen...start your shredders!'

'We'll talk later, Ed, but for now we have a quick and dirty solution to your objections.'

'What do you mean we can't finish on time? Do you want history to say that Rome wasn't built in a day?'

",,,and what's more Pearson, it hasn�t gone unnoticed that you're not meeting deadlines"

Stacked In Tray

"What's ticking away in your filing system?"

'It's come to my attention that you're becoming a bit of a clock watcher.'

Deadlines, kill fees. Who comes up with these terms?
