11 Tips for Managers
1. Never give me work in the morning. Always wait until 4:00pm and then
bring it to me. The challenge of a deadline is refreshing.
2. If it's really a "rush job", run in and interrupt me every 10 minutes to
inquire how it's going. That helps. Or even better, hover behind me,
advising me at every keystroke.
3. Always leave without telling anyone where you're going. It gives me a
chance to be creative when someone asks where you are.
4. Wait until my yearly review and THEN tell me what my goals SHOULD have
been. Give me a mediocre performance rating with a cost of living increase.
I'm not here for the money anyway.
5. If you give me more than one job to do, don't tell me which the priority
is. I like being a psychic.
6. Do your best to keep me late. I adore this office and really have
nowhere to go or anything to do. I have no life beyond work.
7. If a job I do pleases you, keep it a secret. If that gets out, it could
mean a promotion.
8. If you don't like my work, tell everyone. I like my name to be popular
in conversations. I was born to be whipped.
9. If you have special instructions for a job, don't write them down. In
fact, save them until the job is almost done. No use confusing me with
useful information.
10. Never introduce me to the people you're with. I have no right to know
anything. In the corporate food chain, I am plankton. When you refer to
them later, my shrewd deductions will identify them.
11. Tell me all your little problems. No one else has any and it's nice to
know someone is less fortunate. I especially like the story about having to
pay so many taxes on the bonus check you received for being such a good
manager.

A helicopter was flying around above Seattle when an electrical malfunction
disabled all of the aircraft's electronic navigation and communications
equipment.
Due to the clouds and haze, the pilot could not determine the helicopter's
position.
The pilot saw a tall building, flew towards it, circled, and held up a
handwritten sign in large letters - "WHERE AM I?"
People in the tall building quickly responded to the aircraft, drew a large
sign, and held it in a building window.
"YOU ARE IN A HELICOPTER."
The pilot smiled, waved, looked at his map, found his directions, and flew
to Seattle airport safely.
The co-pilot asked "How did you manage to find your way?". Pilot said "I
knew that tall building had to be MICROSOFT, because they gave me an answer
that was technically correct but completely useless"
