These are the ones I had hanging my office.

Thank you. We're all refreshed and challenged by your unique point of view.

The fact that no one understands you doesn't mean you're an artist

Obviously you're unable to assimilate my stimulating concepts into your blighted world-view.

I don't know what your problem is, but I'll bet it's hard to pronounce.

Any connection between your reality and mine is purely coincidental.

I can see your point, but I still think you're full of crap.

I have plenty of talent and vision. I just don't give a damn.

I'm not being rude. You're just insignificant.

Does everyone visualize duct tape over your mouth so early into the conversation?

I will always cherish the initial misconceptions I had about you being competent.

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.

No, my powers can only be used for good.

How about never? Is never good for you?

I'm really easy to get along with once you people learn to worship me.

You sound reasonable...Time to up my medication

You're just jealous because the little voices talk to ME.

Are you a freaking ray of sunshine every day?
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 might look like I'm doing nothing, but at the cellular level I'm really quite busy.

It sounds like English, but I can't understand a word you're saying.

You are validating my inherent mistrust of strangers.

Someday, we'll look back on this, laugh nervously, and change the subject.

And your crybaby whiny-assed opinion would be...?

Do I look like a people person?

Sarcasm is just one more service we offer.

If I throw a stick, will you leave?

You!... Off my planet!

Does your train of thought have a caboose?

Errors have been made. Others will be blamed.

Whatever kind of look you were going for, you missed.

Well, this day was a total waste of makeup.

I'm trying to imagine you with a personality.

Chaos, panic, & disorder - my work here is done.

I see you've set aside this special time to humiliate yourself in public.

I like you. You remind me of when I was young and stupid.

What am I?... Flypaper for freaks!

I started out with nothing & still have most of it left.

A cubicle is just a padded cell without a door.

Can I trade this job for what's behind door #1?

Too many freaks, not enough circuses.

Nice perfume. Must you marinate in it?

How do I set a laser printer to stun?

I thought I wanted a career, turns out I just wanted paychecks.

Ahhh...I see the screw-up fairy has visited us again...

LETTERS TO WELFARE:
Date: 17 June 1997
Subject: welfare apps

For those unfamiliar, Welfare payment are made in the US to individuals and families with income below a certain level. The following quotations are taken from actual letters by the Welfar Department application for support of receiving payments.
_________________________________________________

I am forwarding my marriage certificate and 6 children. I have seven but one died which was baptized on a sheet of paper.

I am writing the welfare department to say that my baby was born two years old. When do I get my money?

Mrs. Jones has not had any clothes for two years and has been visited regularly by the clergy.

I cannot get sick pay. I have six children can you tell me why?

I am glad to report that my husband who is missing is dead.

This is my eighth child. What are you going to do about it?

Please find for certain if my husband is dead. The man I am now living with can't do anything until he knows.

I am very much annoyed to find out that you have branded my son illiterate. This is a dirty lie, as I was married a week before he was born.

In answer to your letter, I have given birth to a son weighing 10 lbs. I hope this is satisfactory.

I am forwarding my marriage certificate and my 3 children one of which is a mistake as you can see.

My husband got his project cut off about two weeeks ago and I haven't had any relief since.

Unless I get my husband's money pretty sson, I will be foreced to lead an immortal life.

You have my changed liitle boy to a girl, will this make any difference?

I have no children yet, as my husband is a truck driver and works nights and day.

I want money as quick as I can get it. I have been in bed with the doctor for two weeks and he doesn't do me any good. If things don't improve, I will have to send for another doctor.

In accordance with your instructions, I have given birth to twins in the enclosed envelope.
