Truths of Office Life
Most people live in what they think is reality but is actually an illusion.But the ultimate truth of office life is that DILBERTISM is everywhere!!!I might probably the 7594098732th guy to say this and it is no illusion.
Was at client location and discovered an amazing way(it is also called control and it earns me my dough)in which employers ensure that employees get caught if they are trying to steal chairs.Create a open cubicle and keep chairs in that.An open cubicle(is not an oxymoron by the way) looks like the follows
---- -----
|a b|
| |
|c d|
---- -----
My computer can be blamed for the incoherent drawing(there are no openings at the vertices, just one on either side).So four employees sit in the above cubicle(a,b,c,d) and have around 6 chairs within this den.They key is to ensure that the chair is heavy enough so that a normal human being would have to heave it in order to lift it.At the same time, the openings on the sides have to be big enough for a corpulent person to get through but not enough for the chair to slide through.And the cieling should be a low rise one and voila.You have the ultimate theft-proof, "look at me Im stealing a chair mechanism" where the culprit himself turns on the alarm.Every employee who tries to steal a chair(everybody claims that they were only trying to see if the mechanism is foolproof and yes, it proves them all to be fools) ends up hitting the cieling with the chair thereby causing all the employees(who claim and put up a good show that they work)to stop the earth-shattering work to observe the cieling shattering work of the poor guy who never read Dilbert!!!
By the way.Did i mention that i was not trying to steal a chair yesterday??!!
Thought for the moment
You pay for what you sow
