    That is funny!
    • Posting the conference rooms as "full" all week in Outlook is not a good use of company time
    • Using 4 company monitors on one computer to play games is not a good use of company property
    • Replacing an employees desktop with a picture of their desktop and hiding their icons, is not funny
    • Forwarding employees phones to pizza take out restaurants is counter productive

    I beg to disagree.

    My personal favorites:

    "RJ-45 ends are not "network seeds" and should not be scattered under floor tiles in an effort to cultivate a server farm."

    "An hourly crontab from 3am-6am stating the time via SMS to a coworker doesn't convey any useful information."

    "It's not necessary to conduct a turing test on new hires to ensure they're not robots."

    I think I would actually go far in these working environs. Can I apply? I can pass a Turing test.

    I think.
