Extra Quote: May, 1998

Six Laws of Office Murphology:

  1. Important letters that contain no errors will develop errors in the mail.

    Corollary: Corresponding errors will show up in duplicate when the boss is reading it.

  2. Office machines that function perfectly during office hours will break down when you return to the office at night to use them for personal buisness.

  3. Machines that have broken down will work perfectly when the person who repairs them arrives.

  4. Envelopes and stamps that don't stick when you lick them will stick to other things when you don't want them to.

  5. Vital papers will demonstrate their vitality by moving from where you left them to where you can't find them.

  6. The last person who quit or was fired will be held responsible for everything that goes wrong - until the next person quits or is fired.
