My buddy from TI just sent this after a "safety" incident. This is now part of a monthly "safety" topic. And people think Dilbert isn't based on reality...

My favorite line: "Ensure the employee understands proper walking habits"
There is no genuine justice in any scheme of feeding and coddling the loafer whose only ponderable energies are devoted wholly to reproduction. Nine-tenths of the rights he bellows for are really privileges and he does nothing to deserve them. We not only acquired a vast population of morons, we have inculcated all morons, old or young, with the doctrine that the decent and industrious people of the country are bound to support them for all time.-Menkin

    Half a dozen less cheeseburgers a week might help her not trip over her own feet.
    Check your lips at the door woman. Shake your hips like battleships. Yeah, all the white girls trip when I sing at Sunday service.

    Well, that was the poor sap they got to "recreate" the incident so that everyone could learn to walk without hurting themselves.

    But I always thought that "weebles wobble but don't fall down"

    Can you imagine training "walking habits"? I got yelled at once for spinning 180 degrees on a bench and leaving off the other side. Apperently no one is allowed to cross a bench, regardless of manner (Signs had gon up earlier to not step over the benches). You MUST go around. :rolleyes:

    Nah, I just quit and got a better job with expense accounts... :D

    I will have to pass that on though... I'd love to see how the "hall monitors" react to that. Probably result in yet another sign...
