BIG AND SHINY
“Now listen here, swine!” Claude bellowed with inflated self importance. “Now that I’ve put in charge of this department things are going to be different! There will be order!”
The employees looked at him blankly.
“First rule, my cubicle is off limits! Nobody enters my territory! Nobody messes with my stuff! You will respect my authority!”
The employees rushed Claude, tackled him, knocked down all his cubicle walls, overturned his desk, scattered his paperwork, and threw his laptop out the window.
“If you don’t anyone to push your buttons,” an employee reminded, “don’t make them so big and shiny.”

Heehee.
Do you know that I automatically and immediately cursored over that big red shiny button up there that says not to push it. Hmm.
Love that cubicle crew, they did the right thing.

Ha! That’s the way to show the boss who’s boss! I like the idea of not making one’s buttons so obvious to push.
