I know I bitch and moan daily about BMO and yes it does deserve the majority of it but I thought I should start keeping track of some of my favorite BMO moments for prosperity’s sake.
1) On the super bowl lottery, one professional put in 2 dollars and won the whole 75 dollars. His colleague goes “Man that’s some return.” Then winks and punches him in the shoulder. If you can’t laugh at that what can you?
2) “Stealing” food after a meeting was done even though I wasn’t hungry, then eating it fast before anyone saw me and then getting a stomach ache. Yes it was stupid but I just have to get every possible thing I can free from this company.
3) Employees constantly making references to Office Space, and being serious. This includes the stapler on the desk I am temping at that reads “I do believe you have my stapler.”
I can laugh because it is temporary and not my life but otherwise I would cry, and then laugh and then throw my stapler at someone’s head.

4) FIRE DRILLS! First fire drills are the great equalizer. There is no way a Managing Director can maintain the intimidation factor when trying to balance a blackberry and a coffee all while stuffed into a stairwell with the lowely temps. Plus I love watching CEO's being lectured by fire men.
5) Hilarity = when CEOs fart while walking by you and pretend it wasn't them. I'm sorry but i know nothing that foul comes out of me.

6) One of the MD's: “That’s odd because he’s usually always has his lips in the right place.”

7) 24/ 7 News for 8 hour days. Ridic. There is a T.V. in reception where I am temping this week. My duties at the desk include turning the T.V. on when I arrive at 8:30 a.m. and turning it off when I leave at 4:30 p.m. That means 8 news-filled hours fill my day; that much cable news makes one realize what a joke 24/7 news really it. TV anchors analyzed everything from the McCain “catfight” to whether Obama is funny or not. Just proves that cable news should only be taken in 15 minute increments.

I think you need to keep a running tab of BMOs... these make me laugh. Love it
ReplyDeleteuse your intellectual prowess to subtly mock them... eat their food.. remove staples from their staplers when they're not looking... or switch staplers on coworkers desks.. lower their chairs and tell them they're shrinking.. HAVE fun.. then share..
