Caught sleeping at your desk: top excuses

1. They told me at the blood bank this might happen.

2. This is just a 15 minute power-nap like they raved about in the last time management course you sent me to.

3. Whew! Guess I left the top off the liquid paper.

4. I wasn't sleeping! I was meditating on the mission statement and envisioning a new paradigm!

5. This is one of the seven habits of highly effective people!

6. I was testing the keyboard for drool resistance.

7. Actually I'm doing a "Stress Level Elimination Exercise Plan" (SLEEP). I learned it at the last mandatory seminar you made me attend.

8. I was doing a highly specific Yoga exercise to relieve work related stress.

9. Darn! Why did you interrupt me? I had almost figured out a solution to our biggest problem.

10. The coffee machine is broken.

11. Someone must've put decaf in the wrong pot.

12. Boy, that cold medicine I took last night just won't wear off!

13. Ah, the unique and unpredictable circadian rhythms of the workaholic!

14. I wasn't sleeping, I was trying to pick up contact lens without hands.

15. Amen.

These are great!  Brother Suleyman, you should use number 5 -- highly effective work habits -- haven't you read that book yet, boss?

Yes Sister,i know but for the next time there will be no need an excuse,i will put a B5 paper onto the camera then the problem will be solved,while he thinks on why the camera does not work i will have at least 45 minutes to sleep...

Sometimes i do some crazy things in the bank,for example they know me as an hard worker works all day with heavy files also goes to government offices for the leasing files,but they do not know sometimes i quit with an empty envelope trying to seem goes to the same place but while i am going to to have some books and CDs'...job could be funny,i can't resist to high level dicipline....

Ever have one of these days?
 
 
 

Oops!

A police officer in a small town stopped a motorist who was
speeding down Main Street.

"But officer," the man began, "I can explain..."

"Just be quiet," snapped the officer. "I'm going to let you cool
your heels in jail until the chief gets back."

"But, officer, I just wanted to say...,"

"And I said to keep quiet! You're going to jail!"

A few hours later the officer looked in on his prisoner and
said, "Lucky for you that the chief's at his daughter's
wedding. He'll be in a good mood when he gets back."

"Don't count on it," answered the fellow in the cell.
"I'm the groom."

"Every good deed is charity whether you come to your brother's assistance or just greet him with a smile.
