Employment

"As a manager I might have my head in the clouds, but it's much better than being a worker who has his whole body in the dirt!"

"You've got your corner office, so what more do you want?"

'Do you think, perhaps, that we could start shooting for a few longer-term goals around here?'

'What sort of mission statement is that?'

'Finally! A meeting with one of the bigwigs.'

37 years in the same position.

'Let me worry about the one percent inspiration, you just take care of the 99 percent perspiration.'

"Don't forget to leave me a wakeup call so I can get the worm!"

"Don't flutter your little wings on company time."

Burning the midnight oil.

'Had I known Hell was going to be exactly like work, I probably wouldn''t have spent as much time there.'

Work Parfait

'I play so hard that I have no time to work hard.'

'Is that the sweet smell of success or some imitation air freshener?'

'I work two jobs and have three kids. At the end of the day I am exhausted. Do you have anything that is not sexy and just smells good.'

Working hours.

Overworked in the office

"I'm feeling completely wiped out."

"I'll wait a moment for everyone's energy drink to kick in."

Man at desk with two in-trays reading 'urgent' and 'too late'.

Multi-tasking.

'These are job perks.'

"Now, let's get out there and walk really fast to places we don't want to be."

'Pssst! Straighten up, here come the bigwigs.'

Some days at work can be more challenging than others.

Time for More Paperwork

Busy Workload Today and Especially Tomorrow

Back to work...

Office slaves.

'Go right in -- he's expecting you.'

"Would anyone like to question my downsizing proposal?"

"Yes, I saw the obituary. So, is that why you weren't in yesterday?"

'Did you just show your teeth at me Wilson?'

'I need to talk to you about the coffee fund.'
