Among the rules I'm going to try to live by (starting tomorrow):

"Don't lose your temper and cuss out the boss, even if he lost his temper first."

Gotta be cool like Fonzie...

screw that!

Yelling at my boss is the only thing that keeps me sane.

I just make sure the door is closed so know one seems me yelling at the mirror.

I'm taking management classes....

"anger management" classes. LOL ...from a scene in The Office after a guy (forget the character) loses his temper and punches the wall.

Gotta watch those CLD's ...Career Limiting Decisions 🙂

Rule 3a. Anyone caught keying the boss's car will be executed on the spot and burned to ashes in the parking lot. Anyone suspected of keying the boss's car will be waterboarded until confessing to keying the boss's car, after which execution and the BBQ will occur.

^re 4 and 12: I'd never key anyone's car. It goes against the Man Code. [See "Pulp Fiction," Vincent Vega: "What's more ch!cken$h!t than f#@king with a man's automobile? I mean, don't f#@k with another man's vehicle."]

But...

After the mofo-big boss senior partner who invited me into this joint barked and spit and cursed during a meeting because I wasn't quoting aloud from a client's email quickly enough...

I slid the paper across the table at him and told him to "Read the f#@king thing yourself if you need to be such an @$$hole."

Long. Uncomfortable. Silence. Everyone else staring at their notepads.

Then I smiled and told him to go ahead and read it -- that I'd help him with the big words.

(He didn't laugh and things went downhill from there.)

Not my finest moment.

If I can avoid mouthing off for the next 45 minutes, I'll probably make it home tonight, still gainfully employed.

Which... That'd be cool.

PERFECT time to role out "I'm 21 Bitch!" Remember?

Hot, 21 year old female contestants start with a tight white tank top and string bikini bottoms. Each has to make it threw all the stages of the obsticle course.

-Run through a car wash type area while fireman spray at them with a mixture of warm water and olive oil.

-Then they have to drink 5 shots of tequilla.

-Followed by jumping up and down on a trampoline until the applause meter hits a specific level, then she can proceed to...

-The banana deep throat (must be able to tale in 6 inches).

-Run a gauntlet of 10 Cbid pervert trying to tear the white shirt off.

-Crosses the finish line, and if the top isn’t already torn off, she takes it off and screams into the camera "Daddy, why didn’t you love me?!"

Click off the stop watch. Five women do this. The top three times fight it out in a blueberry pie filling rasslin’ match.

The first one to get pinned is eliminated. The finalists get to star in an upcoming porn shoot in Chatsworth.

Pay-per-view.

(Gidddyup!)

In all fairness, this had been buidling for a while. We have some footage from the security cameras at the building.

First there was this little incident a few years ago when you showed a new way of addressing confrontational co-workers:

Them there was this little incident, when you showed you could be a little overly sensitive and violent:

But as you got older, every little damned thing at the office seemed to bother you, and apparently you also tried to give up cigars for a while and after you had grown to hate your job. Bad combination:

Then your office was doing some big Fox promo party, and you had to screw with the reporter, live and on the air:

By the time the cops came to arrest you, you were in pretty bad shape:

So really, it wasn't all that surprising to the rest of us.

^I'm the boss of some people here; but there's one senior partner, founding member of the company who functions as my boss (in a very dysfunctional sort of way).

Another thing I'll share: Apparently, "I'm sorry you were such an @$$h#le yesterday" doesn't count as an apology.

I told him he'd have to settle for "I'm sorry I wasn't able to contain my anger in the face of your inappropriate behavior."
