Topic: Some fun for your Friday...: your name and say, "Just called to say I can't talk right now. Bye." 4. To signal the end of a conversation, clamp your hands over your ears and grimace. 5. When someone hands you a piece of paper, finger it, and whisper huskily,"Mmmmmmm, that feels soooooo good!" 6. Leave your zipper open for one hour. If anyone points it out, say,"Sorry, I really prefer it this way". 7. Walk sideways to the photocopier. 8. While riding the elevator, gasp dramatically every time the doors open. 9. Groan out loud in the toilet cubicle (at least one other 'non-player'must be in the toilet at the time). THREE-POINT DARES 1. Say to your boss, "I like your style" and shoot him with double-barrelled fingers. 2. Babble incoherently at a fellow employee then ask, "Did you get all that, I don't want to have to repeat it". 3. Page yourself over the intercom (do not disguise your voice). 4. Kneel in front of the water cooler and drink directly from the nozzle (there must be a 'non-player' within sight). 5. Shout random numbers while someone is counting. FIVE POINT DARES 1. At the end of a meeting, suggest that, for once, it would be nice to conclude with the singing of the national anthem (extra points if you actually launch into it yourself). 2. Walk into a very busy person's office and while they watch you with growing irritation, turn the light switch on/off 10 times. 3. For an hour, refer to everyone you speak to as "Bob". 4. Announce to everyone in a meeting that you "really have to go do a number two". 5. After every sentence, say 'Mon' in a really bad Jamaican accent. As in"the report's on your desk, Mon". Keep this up for one hour. 6. While an office mate is out, move their chair into the elevator. 7. In a meeting or crowded situation, slap your forehead repeatedly andmutter, "Shut up, damn it, all of you just shut up!" 8. At lunchtime, get down on your knees and announce, "As God as my witness, I'll never go hungry again". 9. In a colleague's diary, write in 10am: "See how I look in tights". 10. Carry your keyboard over to your colleague and ask, "You wanna trade?" 11. Repeat the following conversation 10 times to the same person: "Do you hear that?" "What?" "Never mind, it's gone now". 12. Come to work in army fatigues and when asked why, say, "I can't talk about it". 13. Posing as a maitre d', call a colleague and tell him he's won a lunch for four at a local restaurant. Let him go. 14. Speak with an accent (French, German, Porky Pig, etc) during a very important conference call. 15. Find the vacuum and start vacuuming around your desk. 16. Hang a two-foot long piece of toilet roll from the back of your pantsand act genuinely surprised when someone points it out. 17. Present meeting attendees with a cup of coffee and biscuit, smash each biscuit with your fist. 18. During the course of a meeting, slowly edge your chair towards the door. Post your score! :)…; Added by Brent Potter at 12:39pm on January 16, 2009

Topic: Somewhere Between the Second and Fourth Floor: well to return to the second floor, given my complete intolerance of waiting. I slowly descended to find that I was not going to be able to access the second floor from the stairs. I returned to the fourth floor hoping against hope I could re-renter there. The doors were all locked. Locked in a stairwell. Not a good time. I made my way to the first floor, looking up occasionally, I felt like I was in a movie or something. I decided high heels were not a good idea at that moment and if someone had been chasing me that I would be an easy target, I wasn’t getting away. Funny what our mind does to us when we encounter an unfamiliar situation. The unlocked door on the bottom floor dropped me into the parking lot on the opposite side of the building. I had to re-enter the building at the main entrance and take the, now beautiful, elevator back to the second floor. A simple up and down ride in the lift turned into debacle that still failed to produce paper plates. Taking the easy way instead of the right way. What has happened to job postings, as of late? Classifieds are alive and well, they just come in a different format now; be wary of circling the job for which you’d like to follow up. ;-) While job postings are an active part of corporate recruiting, somehow the ideal has been lost. A job posting is an advertisement for an open position. An art form, really…, an enticement to drive a job seeker to throw their hat in the ring, to be considered for the opening. What we see now that calls itself an advert is nothing more than a poorly written job description and a miserable attempt at enticement. Most hiring managers and/or recruiters fail miserably at writing a worthy job advert. With the multitude of free resources available, one would think that practice would make perfect. Instead, lazy recruiters simply cut and paste job descriptions and drop them in. This is supposed to draw candidates to the light, to drink from the water? I have had the opportunity to review many job postings lately and I am, really, flabbergasted by the lack of quality and thought that goes into each posting – advertisement. It’s an advertisement, an announcement to persuade someone to call or email with interest. How do you attract top talent to your organization or for your clients? It’s not a difficult concept and yet, so many would rather take the stairwell. Show them the stairwell after they’ve had the elevator rush. That elevator gets ‘em to your door quicker and they are eager to learn more. Not locked in, or tired, or bored. © by rayannethorn…; Added by Rayanne at 3:39am on February 3, 2010
