- It's nice to share. Don't be weird about your stapler. You can buy a brand new one for ten or twenty bucks at OfficeMax.

- Help your boss become more productive. paint all sides of his Rubik's Cube the same color.
THE RULE
Rule One! The boss can do no wrong. Is her skirt caught in her pantyhose? Are his shoes on the wrong feet? You should take this as your personal cue to do the same, whenever possible.
Your supervisors are trendsetters, or it could be a case of top management saying "We will wear our shoes on the wrong feet until this division returns to productivity!". It's very important to stay on top of these trends if you want to get ahead.
