          Try some office dares......

          Dare you to try these.......

          ONE-POINT OFFICE DARES

          1) Run one lap around the office at top speed.

          2) Groan out loud in the toilet cubicle (at least one other person must be
          in the toilet at the time).

          3) Ignore the first five people who say 'good morning' to you.

          4) Phone someone in the office you barely know, leave your name and say,
          `Just called to say I can't talk right now. Bye.`

          5) To signal the end of a conversation, clamp your hands over your ears and
          grimace.

          6) When someone hands you a piece of paper, finger it, and whisper huskily,
          `Mmmmmmm, that feels soooooo good!`.

          7) Leave your zipper open for one hour. If anyone points it out, say,
          `Sorry, I really prefer it this way`.

          8) Walk sideways to the photocopier.

          9) While riding in a lift, gasp dramatically every time the doors open.


          THREE-POINTS 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

          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 sh*t

          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 lift.

          7) In a meeting or crowded situation, slap your forehead repeatedly and
          mutter, `Shut up, damn it, all of you just shut up!`.

          8) At lunchtime, get down on your knees and announce, `As God is 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 pants
          and 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.

          19) Arrange toy figures on the table to represent each meeting attendee,
          move them according to the movements of their real-life counterparts.



          And if that wasn't enough for you...

          1) At lunchtime, sit in your parked car with sunglasses on and point a
          hairdryer at passing cars. See if they slow down.

          2) Tell your children over dinner. `Due to the economy, we are going to have
          to let one of you go.`

          3) Every time someone asks you to do something, ask if they want fries with
          that.

          4) Put your rubbish bin on your desk and label it `IN.`

          5) Put decaf in the coffee maker for 3 weeks. Once everyone has gotten over
          his or her caffeine addictions, switch to espresso.

          6) In the subject field for all your e-mails, write ` FOR SEXUAL FAVOURS`.

          7) Finish all your sentences with `In accordance with the prophecy.`

          8) Don't use any punctuation

          9) As often as possible, skip rather than walk.

          10) Ask people what sex they are. Laugh hysterically after they answer.

          11) Specify that your drive-through order is `to go.`

          12) Sing along at the opera.

          13) Go to a poetry recital and ask why the poems don't rhyme.

          14) Put mosquito netting around your work area. Play a tape of jungle sounds
          all day.

          15) Five days in advance, tell your friends you can't attend their party
          because you're not in the mood.

          16) Have your co-workers address you by your wrestling name, Rock Hard.

          17) When the money comes out of the ATM, scream `I Won! I Won! 3rd time this
          week!!!`

          18) When leaving the zoo, start running towards the parking lot yelling,
          `Run for your lives, they're loose!`

            well, a couple of years ago when a was just a newb and very new to the sport
            i wanted to find out more about the sport, its history, culture, markers and gear...etc.
            i worked for a fairly large semi conductor company making motherboards and such...well since i didnt have internet at my home at the time... i figure i would use company time and property(computer) to answer my questions about paintball.

            surfing the web, i went and save pages, articles, pictures apon pictures of paintball and was ready to print them up before i get caught.. so i printed ever page i saved...close to 50 or so.
            went to the local printer but nothing came out?? mmm
            went back and check the properties on the printer...printed again..nothing
            ah i said oh well
            seconds right after i shut the pc down several executives upstairs yelling "what the hell is this Sh^@$^#$!!"
            eveyone had gathered around several printers printing out load of paintball stuff
            and the boss was pissed and wanted to fire who did it

            moral of the story: use someone elses computer...but check which printer its goin to print at

                If they have no way of finding out where the pages came from you need to photoshop pictures of all the executives having gay sex with each other, and other perverted things (S&M, bondage, beastiality, etc), faces on monkeys, hitlar, etc then print it on their printer

BTW, all neon tubes that use argon or H-gas have mercury in them. Neon tubes (signs) have more mercury in them than the florescent tubes (used for standard lighting). Don't worry about it, you'll live.

                      Walmart stockroom, there was these two Honda "mini bikes" in claims, battery powered and said they could operate with up to 160lbs (we're close enough), the claims tag said they were returned because they went too fast for the customers child. Now the backroom is shaped like a rectangle with skids of freight all around the edge, and an island type steel rack in the middle, for more freight, so me and my buddy decided to try out the bikes, they worked, so we had a little race around the back room until I hit a skid and knocked it over.

                      Turns out there's cameras in the back.

                        50, well... it wasn't a smart thing to do, but I don't hink you'll have any problems. I wouldn't worry about it.

                        I worked in a neon shop and handled mercury almost every day. Its not the horrible toxic metal that everyone thinks it is. Your parents probably played with mercury in school (I know my physics teacher did). Sure you have to be careful with it, especially if you work around it so much, but its not as bad as you think. I heard of a guy who worked in an other neon shop and was very careless with the mercury, didn't clean up spills unless they were bad, stuff like that... He got tested for murcury, and his body's mercury level was barely above average, even after years of being careless with it.

                        I would have been worried more about the flourescent powder in them, I don't know if its particularly unhealthy, but I wouldn't go around breathing the stuff in.

                          I start scripting weird, HI WELCIM TE HADEES, HOOD JU IKE TU TY R U WESTWIN BAKIN HICKBIRGER TOHITE., or just start saying it in different accents. Or as you said, I usually start walking the windex bottle. Or start dancing with the brooms, and saying how stupid certain customers are.

                                Apparently you can't seem to fathom how much alcohol was layed out...I went through probably 20 oz of it. At one point I was thinking about making some type of quick loader ...

                                It blurs the images and text.
