TIPS FOR MANAGERS AND BOSSES

1.  Never give me work in the morning.  Always 
wait until 4:00 and then bring it to me.  The 
challenge of a deadline is refreshing.

2.  If it's really a 'rush job,' run in and 
interrupt me every ten minutes to inquire how it's 
going.  That helps.

3.  Always leave without telling anyone where 
you're going.  It gives me a chance to be creative 
when someone asks where you are.

4.  If my arms are full of papers, boxes, books, 
or supplies, don't open the door for me.  I need 
to learn how to function as a paraplegic and 
opening doors is good training.

5.  If you give me more than one job to do, don't 
tell me which is the priority.  Let me guess.

6.  Do your best to keep me late.  I like the 
office and really have nowhere to go or anything 
to do.

7.  If a job I do pleases you, keep it a secret.  
Leaks like that could cost me a promotion.

8.  If you don't like my work, tell everyone.  I 
like my name to be popular in conversation.

9.  If you have special instructions for a job, 
don't write them down.  In fact, save them until 
the job is almost done.

10.  Never introduce me to the people you're with.  
When you refer to them later, my shrewd deductions 
will identify them.

11.  Be nice to me only when the job I'm doing for 
you could really change your life.

12.  Tell me all your little problems.  No one 
else has any and it's nice to know someone is less 
fortunate.
