MAKING THE ROUNDS
Making a Living?

I don’t know the source of this top-10 list. I can only thank J.H.P.

Enjoy.

You know you work in corporate America in 2004 if . . .

1. Your resume is on a diskette in your pocket at all times.
2. You get really excited about a 3 percent pay raise.
3. Your biggest loss from a system crash is that you lose your best jokes.
4. You sit in a cubicle smaller than your bedroom closet.
5. It’s dark when you drive to and from work.
6. You’re already late on the assignment you just got.
7. Art in the office involves a white board.
8. Your boss’s favorite lines are: “When you get a few minutes,” “In your spare time,” “When you’re freed up,” and “I have an opportunity for you.”
9. You wonder if the new hires are old enough to drive.
10. You’ve sat at the same desk for four years and worked for three different companies.
