A safe
« on: August 09, 2004, 03:43:21 PM »
Due to my workplace's efforts to be more audit-friendly, I now have a safe at my desk.  (So that I have access to the checkbook--even though I can't write checks--and the guy who can write checks has to come get them from me.  So that we don't write them to ourselves.  Get it?)

Anyway, the checkbook is small, and I've got a good-sized safe.  What else should I stick in there?

Icons of Cthulhu. Just to see the reaction of the auditors.

Also: cookies.
If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)

Ah--cookies are a good idea.  I have a bag right here.

I don't have any icons of Cthulu right here, sadly.

Incidentally Ent, aren't you supposed to call cookies 'biscuits'?  Or are you just translating into American for us?

I think you should stick a naked barbie in there.

That, or ninja monkeys. Y'know.

Place a very large kitchen knife in there, preferrably a well used one. Stare in an evil manner at your co-workers. Then sit back and watch as you get promoted.

No, no, no.  You have it all wrong.  Cookies are good.  Symbols of Cthulhu , good.  Ninja monkeys, good.  Happy meal toys and cracker jack prizes, good.  Large kitchen knife, not so much.

Yeah, especially given the work climate these days, post-9/11--I already have too much security to deal with at work without coworkers bringing sharp knives and staring crazily.

Cookies and biscuits are two entirely different things.

Collect rocks and paint them gold.  Amuse yourself with the looks on your coworkers' faces.

Have an empty, sealed envelope in it.  Every time you open the safe, stroke the envelope and smirk.  Once in a while, just hold it and smile real big.  Make your co-workers wonder what's inside it.
