MURPHY'S LAWS ON WORK
* The more crap you put up with, the more crap you are going to get.
* You can go anywhere you want if you look serious and carry a clipboard.
* There will always be beer cans rolling on the floor of your car when the boss asks for a ride home from the office.
* To err is human, to forgive is not company policy.
* The last person that quit or was fired will be the one held responsible for everything that goes wrong - until the next person quits or is fired.
* 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.
* When you don't know what to do, walk fast and look worried.
* No one gets sick on Wednesdays.
* 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?"
* An "acceptable" level of employment means that the government economist to whom it is acceptable still has a job.
