Yes, I am an agent of Satan
I was cleaning out my inbox today and ran across this list of things I'd love to say during our weekly teleconferences. I don't know where the list comes from but whomever wrote it must inhabit the dilbert zone like I do.
- I can see your point, but I still think you're full of it.
- I don't know what your problem is, but I'll bet it's hard to pronounce.
- How about never? Is never good for you?
- I see you've set aside this special time to humiliate yourself in publi c. This is good!
- I'm really easy to get along with once you people learn to see it my wa y.
- I'll try being nicer if you'll try being smarter.
- I'm out of my mind, but feel free to leave a message.
- I don't work here. I'm a consultant.
- It sounds like English, but I can't understand a word you're saying.
- Ahhh ... I see the screw-up fairy has visited us again.
- I like you. You remind me of when I was young and stupid.
- You are validating my inherent mistrust of strangers.
- I have plenty of talent and vision. I just don't give a damn.
- I'm already visualizing the duct tape over your mouth.
- Thank you. We're all refreshed and challenged by your unique point of v iew.
- Any connection between your reality and mine is purely coincidental.
- What am I? Flypaper for freaks!?
- I'm not being rude. You're just insignificant.
- It's a thankless job, but I've got a lot of karma to burn off.
- Yes, I am an agent of Satan, but my duties are largely ceremonial.
- Do I look like a people person?
- This isn't an office. It's Hell with fluorescent lighting.
- I started out with nothing and still have most of it left.
- Sarcasm is just one more service we offer.
- I'm trying to imagine you with a personality.
- A cubicle is just a padded cell without a door.
- Can I trade this job for what's behind door number one?
- Too many freaks, not enough circuses.
- Chaos, panic and disorder -- my work here is done.
- How do I set a laser printer to stun?
