Career Advancement by Furball

I'm not sure if this fits into the concept of this blog but since one of my favorite things to do is look a@# in front of other people, I figured it was appropriate. (Ok, no, I don't like looking like a fool - catch the sarcasm?)

Here is my most up-to-date list on how to make a good impression at your new job:


  • Inadvertently -- or, heck, on purpose -- tell your boss that one of his designs is ugly. And then laugh.

  • Compulsively suck on lollipops and tell everyone you are a compulsive eater.

  • Drool on yourself during a meeting with your boss, team leader and other associates. Twice. Act like nothing happened.

  • Expense office supplies that turn out to be more expensive than your boss thought.

  • Stare off into space during a meeting and when asked how your thoughts, give the questioner a blank look. Grunting is optional and implied.

  • Take your paid vacation 1 week after you start.
  • Forget which day you are returning so when you find out, you can then tell your team just before you leave that you'll be gone longer than originally expected.


Hope you find this helpful!
