Posted May 14, 200420 yr All you information technology folks will appreciate this. My department comes up with a 'Picnic Theme' each year. We create a logo and sell Tshirts at the picnic to fund future events (Octoberfest, etc.). Here's my entry (Hopefully you watch the show 'Survivor'):
May 14, 200420 yr Ummmmm, yeah. I'm gonna need you to come in tomorrow and I'm gonna need you to come in on Sunday as well to work on that shirt. We're gonna start at he usual time. It's not a half day or anything. Thaaaaaanks, Hipcheck. Our office picnic is at Wet N Wild this weekend. God, it sucks having to be all grown up and work for the man.

May 14, 200420 yr Author That Outsource thing on the shirt is kind of scary, you really don't want to give anyone ideas about it. Too late!!! The company has decided to bring 3 firms in for a 12 week trial period to outsource IT Infrastructure (not my dept.). That's the pun on there shirt. There was an alternative design I proposed as well, which got shot down by the boss. We have a department slogan "Making IT happen". It's a pun on the words 'it' and "Information Technology (I.T.)". I suggested this:

May 14, 200420 yr "IT Happens" is great! I got a little coffee going up through the nose on that one.

May 18, 200420 yr Thats a nice price for that putter. I have been paying attention to E-bay and they seemed to be going higher than that lately... I have been dreaming of picking a second for the wall... unfortunately college got me a little to strapped for such luxuries. I'm sure when I get out of here it one of those will be coming out of my first paycheck.
