Laws of Work according to a comedian:

  • If you can't get your work done in the first 24 hours, work nights.

  • A pat on the back is only a few centimeters from a kick in the butt.

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

  • After any salary raise, you will have less money at the end of the month than you did before.

  • 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.

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

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

  • Everything can be filed under "Miscellaneous."

  • Anyone can do any amount of work, provided it isn't the work he/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.

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

  • People who go to conferences are the ones who shouldn't.

  • 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.

  • Following the rules will not get the job done.

  • Getting the job done is no excuse for not following the rules.

  • 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?"

  • No matter how much you do, you never do enough.

  • The last person that quit or was fired will be held responsible for everything that goes wrong.
