Boss has No Parking sign placed in middle of office.

"Welcome back. You didn't miss much while you were off, besides a bit of speculation about what kind of outpatient procedure you had."

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

'Williams, we're not used to receiving such excellent ideas as these, so we'd like to tone them down a bit.'

"I wonder if A.I. will inevitably become as tired and depressed as we are."

"My email is down... talk to me."

"I don't want a G.O.A.T, I want a S.C.A.P.E.G.O.A.T."

'This job is for a 30 hour week. . .but to achieve that you need to work 60 hours a week.'

"Fill out an application? Can't I just text it?"

'Apparently, Smith's desk just couldn't withstand the weight of the paperwork we piled on his desk.'

"I drink just enough coffee to make me think I can do my job."

'What's that? It's a leaving present for the next person who comes in late.'

A disgruntled employee chain-sawes hois boss's desk in two.Boss says:'Alright Smith, I'll stop referring to the employees as 'oopsy daisies'.'

"I hate performance review season."

'Try and be negative in a positive way.'

'I went to my boss and demanded the fruits of my labor. He gave me a Blackberry.'

Sign on desk reads: 'Thanks for not wishing me a nice day.'

'The boss said I never made any profits and I never found customers worth mentioning and that's why he promoted me to the company's chief bad example!'

'Hi - I'm your company perk !'

"It's crazy here! They're all on recreational rugs."

'Bit of a staffing problem, Boss. We haven't got any left.'

'I give this one about three months...'

'Well, I must say I never thought team-building exercises could be such fun.'

'Here comes the boss. Quick, look busy!'

'Let's keep in mind that although quitters never win, they often manage to avoid litigation.'

"Where we lack in productivity is made up by extremely low employee turnover."

"You're new here ... it's customary on dismal Monday mornings to be miserable."

'I can't give you a raise, a promotion or a bigger office, but I AM going to allow you to have a personality.'

Desk sign: "Yes, sir"
