The Ten Best Things to Say at Work When You are Caught Sleeping at Your Desk

Okay. I don't usually post the stuff I get in my emails. Although a lot of it is nonsense, some is incredibly funny to me. This one made me laugh aloud. So thought I'd share. Adjusted here or there this just might work at school too.

Here goes the David Letterman style countdown:

10. "They told me at the Blood Bank this might happen."

9. "This is just a 15 minute power nap they raved about in the time management course you sent me to."

8. "Whew! Guess I left the top off the Whiteout. You probably got here just in time."

7. "I wasn't sleeping! I was meditating on the mission statement and envisioning a new business strategy."

6. "I was testing my keyboard for drool resistance."

5. "I was doing a highly specific Yoga exercise to relieve work-related stress. Are you discriminatory toward people who practice Yoga?"

4. "Darn! Why did you interrupt me? I had almost figured out how to handle that big accounting problem."

3. "Did you ever notice sound coming out of these keyboards when you put your ear down real close?"

2. "Who put decaf in the wrong pot?"

And the NUMBER ONE best thing to say if you get caught sleeping at your desk:

1. Raise your head slowly and say, "...in Jesus name, Amen."

Jean, that was great! I love reading things that make me really laugh. I think I might have to steal it and put it on my blog.
