How To Annoy Your Co-Workers

How to Annoy Your Co-Workers
1) Page yourself over the intercom. Don't disguise your voice.

2) Find out where your boss shops and buy exactly the same outfits. Wear them one day after your boss does. This is especially effective if your boss is a different gender than you.

3) Make up nicknames for all your co-workers and refer to them only by these names. "That's a good point, Sparky." "No, I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to disagree with you there, Chachie."

4) Send e-mail to the rest of the company telling them exactly what you're doing. For example: "If anyone needs me, I'll be in the bathroom."

5) Hi-Lite your shoes. Tell people you haven't lost them as often since you did this.

6) While sitting at your desk, soak your fingers in Palmolive. Call everyone Madge.

7) Hang mosquito netting around your cubicle. When you emerge to get coffee, a printout, or whatever, slap yourself at random the whole way.

8) Put a chair facing a printer. Sit there all day and tell people you're waiting for your document.

9) Every time someone asks you to do something, anything, ask him or her if they want fries with that.

10) Send e-mail back and forth to yourself, engaging yourself in an intellectual debate. Forward the mail to a co-worker and ask her to settle the disagreement.

11) Encourage your colleagues to join you in a little synchronized chair-dancing.

12) Put your trash can on your desk. Label it "IN".

13) Feign an unnatural and hysterical fear of staplers.

14) Send e-mail messages saying there's free pizza, donuts, or cake in the lunchroom. When people drift back to work complaining that they found none, lean back, pat your stomach, and say, "Oh you've got to be faster than that."

15) Put decaf in the coffeemaker for three weeks. Once everyone has withdrawn from caffeine addiction, switch to espresso.

Never Argue with a Woman

One morning the husband returns after several hours of fishing and decides to take a nap. Although not familiar with the lake, the wife decides to take the boat out. She motors out a short distance, anchors, and reads her book.


Along comes a Game Warden in his boat. He pulls up alongside the woman and says, "Good morning, Ma'am. What are you doing?"


"Reading a book," she replies, (thinking, "Isn't that obvious?"). "You're in a Restricted Fishing Area," he informs her. "I'm sorry, officer, but I'm not fishing. I'm reading."

"Yes, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment. I'll have to take you in and write you up."


"If you do that, I'll have to charge you with sexual assault," says the woman.

"But I haven't even touched you," says the game warden.
"That's true, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment."
"Have a nice day ma'am," and he left.

MORAL: Never argue with a woman who reads. It's likely she can also think.

Secret To Success

A young man asked an old rich guy how he made his money. The old guy said, "Well, son, it was 1932, the depths of the Great Depression. I was down to my last nickel. I invested that nickel in an apple. I spent the entire day polishing the apple and, at the end of the day, I sold the apple for 10 cents. The next morning, I invested those 10 cents in two apples. I spent the entire day polishing them and sold them at 5:00 p.m. for 20 cents. I continued this system for a month, by the end of which I'd accumulated a fortune of a $1.37. Then my wife's father died and left us 10 million dollars."

~Types of Mom~

(Mother's Day Sepcial)
For every special mom who is so beloved and specail for her kids


~Artisan Mother~
You should be very happy to have an artisan mother, for you can afford to be a carefree child and do as your heart tells you. An artisan mother would not be very strict and not much of a disciplinarian. You will learn from her to deviate from the usual norms.

Artisan mothers are playful, daring and also sensual. Artisan mothers love adventures. They look for fun and enjoyment in the small acts of life. Typically, they are unconventional and spontaneous. These free-spirited mothers are emotional and impulsive by nature. You have an advantage with artisan mothers; and that is such mothers are more-often-than-not generous to faults. You can possibly have your way by touching the emotional strings attached to their hearts. They are usually very daring and are least afraid of the risks in life.

If you refer to celebrity mothers to have a clear understanding of the personality of an artisan mother you can always take the example of Madonna who is a very famous artisan mother. Now can you recognize your artisan mother?


~Guardian Mothers~
Guardian mothers have a supreme sense of responsibility, which make them a dependent and responsible mom. But this quality also makes them known to be difficult mothers.

Guardian mothers are very law-abiding. You can trust your guardian mother with any kind of secret, as they are very trustworthy and loyal. They are traditional in their thoughts and ways as they value their custom a lot. Their strong sense of right and wrong adds to making them difficult to deal with. But at the same time being raised up by such a mom will mean that you grow up to be a perfect individual. Such a mom will make a perfectionist out of you and will definitely bring out the best in you.

Queen Victoria is a famous example of a guardian mother.



~Idealist Mother~
Every child will be proud to possess an idealist mother. There are three basic qualities that rule the heart of a mom with ideals; and these three qualities make these mothers romantic, intuitive and enthusiastic. By nature they make very nurturing, doting and kind hearted mothers. If you know that your mother exactly fits into the category of an idealist mother, the knowledge will help you to deal with your mom better.

If you have an idealist mother you have to pay much more importance to your personal growth and development because they are passionate about the personal growth and development of a person. They brim with enthusiasm and let their enthusiasm infect others around her. The romanticism in their nature does not allow them to be practical in the ways of life.

Among the idealist mothers we have the famous personality of Audrey Hepburn. You can take queues about your own idealist mom by going through the character traits of this famous personality.


~Rational Mothers~
A rational mother would be naturally very logical in their thoughts and actions. They would be absolutely even-tempered and of a fiercely independent nature. Their minds are constantly busy trying to understand how this world works.

Their apparent lack of emotion can be very easily mistaken for coldness but we must try and understand that deep down they are always busy in finding out a solution for making this world a better place for you to live in. They are very determined by nature and absolutely dedicated to the project in hand. Rational mothers will definitely make very balanced mothers.

Margaret Thatcher is a very well known personality among the rational mothers.

  2. 20 vegetarians can live off the land required by one meat eater

  3. Every 3 seconds a child dies of starvation somewhere in the world

  8. In third world countries 1 in 10 babies die before their first birthday

  9. The UK imports ?46,000,000 worth of grain from third world countries to feed our livestock

  10. Due to overgrazing 850,000,000 people live on land threatened by desertification & over 230,000,000 already live on land so severely desertified that they are unable to sustain their existence & face imminent starvation

  11. 1,000,000,000 people in the west gorging on meat & dairy leave 1,000,000,000 to waste away & 3,500,000,000 teeter on the brink


    LAND



  12. If they continue to clear American forests to raise cattle at the present rate, in 50 years there will be none left

  13. 1 acre yields 165 lbs of beef or 20,000 lbs of potatoes

  20. Between 1966-1983 38% of the Amazon rain forest was destroyed for cattle grazing

  21. 90% of cattle ranches established on cleared forest land go bankrupt in less than 8 years as the land becomes barren due to nutrient loss & overgrazing

  22. Overgrazing by cattle is destroying the land & increasing desertification, nearly 430 million acres in the USA alone has suffered a 25-50% reduction in yield since first grazed

  23. An inch of topsoil takes 200-1000 years to develop - yet in the USA they have lost around 1/3 of their prime topsoil in 200 years (around 7 inches) due to animal farming

    AIR



  25. The destruction of the rainforest by cattle farmers is destroying the lungs of the planet & reducing the worlds capacity to replenish our oxygen supply

  26. The 1,300,000,000 cattle in the world emit 60,000,000 tons of methane per year (methane is a greenhouse gas & leads to global warming)

  27. Burning of forests, grasslands & agricultural waste associated with animal farming releases 50-100,000,000 tons of methane per year

  28. Combining these figures, 25% of methane emissions are due to animal farming (not including the billions of sheep, pigs & poultry so the real figure is much higher)

  46. The liquid waste from the various parts of the meat & dairy industry flow into the rivers & from there into the seas polluting them & encouraging huge algal blooms to grow

    EFFICIENCY



  47. To produce 1calorie of energy from meat takes 60 calories of petrol, whereas growing grains & legumes to directly feed people produces 20 calories for each calorie of fuel used ( thats 1200 times more efficient)

  48. Meat & dairy farming uses billions of gallons of oil to run tractors, fuel ships & lorries (to move animal feed & animals), pump billions of gallons of water to irrigate fields & run slaughterhouses, power refrigeration units to prevent the corpses from decomposing & to power sewage plants to clean up some of the pollution produced

  49. Cattle convert only 6% of their energy intake (mainly grains & soya) into flesh, the remaining 94% is wasted as heat, movement (which is why they keep many animals in very close confinement) , hair, bones, faeces etc

  60. Fish caught in nets die an agonising slow death of suffocation

  61. Each year 15,000,000,000 land animals are slaughtered for food & an unknown but much larger number of sea creatures (including 1000's of dolphins caught accidentally)

  62. Chickens are crammed into battery cages with upto 3 other birds, they are unable to even spread their wings & many can not even stand up

  63. Unwanted male chicks (because they can't lay eggs) are gassed or pulped while their sisters go to the battery sheds

  64. Chicks are debeaked without anaesthetic to prevent them injuring each other in the unnaturally confined conditions they are kept in - this is equivalent to having your fingernails pulled out without anaesthetic

  65. Modern farming methods using growth hormones & artificial lighting mean that many chickens out grow their bones, resulting in fractured & broken legs

  66. Sows are kept tethered in stalls 1.3 x 1 metre on concrete or slatted floors - they can not even turn around

  67. Poultry raised for meat are kept in windowless broiler sheds, with around 20-30,000 in each shed, they live in an area of 10-20 cm square - fighting due to overcrowding is common & like battery hens they commonly suffer from supperating bed sores

  68. Broilersheds are artificially lit 23 hours a day to produce rapid growth

  69. Animals travel between farms & to slaughter in overcrowded transporters with no food or water - resulting in stress, injuries & deaths - legal requirements are widely ignored

  70. 95% of poultry suffer injuries before being killed & 30% suffer broken bones

  71. Problems with stunning practices mean that many animals have their throats slit while still conscious (around 6% of cattle or 200,000 per year) & are then dipped in tanks of scalding water (to loosen feathers, bristles etc.) again while fully conscious

  72. 4000 animals die spurting their blood out every minute in a British slaughterhouse

  73. Calf leather comes from animals killed at just 2 weeks old

  74. Cows were fed on the ground up remains of other cows & sheep - the result is thought to be BSE (mad cow disease) in the USA cattle are fed partly on recycled plastic pellets

  75. Cows only give milk for 10 months after they have a calf - so they are routinely artificially inseminated (ie. mechanically raped) to keep them pregnant & milking - their calves are taken away (usually at 12 hours old) for meat or export to veal crates

  76. Cows would naturally live upto 20 years but are slaughtered after 5-7 years when their milk production begins to fall

  77. In the UK animals are killed by first being stunned with electricity or a captive bolt gun (ie. a bolt is fired into their heads) before having their throats slit & being plunged into boiling water - all this happens on a production line with the animals being hung upside down from a moving conveyor belt - this is factory farming

  78. "Animals are those unfortunate slaves & victims of the most brutal part of mankind" - John Stewart Mill (philosopher)

  79. Veal calves are confined in stalls in the dark, unable to move & are fed on pigs blood , chocolate & dried milk (we are drinking the rich fresh milk of their mothers)

  80. Cows naturally produce 5 litres of milk per day for their calves - under the intensified systems of modern farming they produce 25-40 litres per day - resulting in swollen & inflamed udders - at this rate they are soon worn out

  81. Large areas of land are under monoculture to grow crops to feed to animals - these areas are wildlife deserts supporting fewer & fewer species.

    HEALTH



  82. Vegetarians have a 20% lower rate of mortality from all causes (ie. they live longer & don't get sick as often)

  83. Meat is full of traces of antibiotics, hormones, toxins produced by stress & pesticide residues that become concentrated from all the crops they have eaten

  92. Vegetarians have a reduced risk of developing gall & kidney stones

  93. 80% of food poisoning is due to infected meat (faeces, bacteria etc.) after all meat is decomposing flesh - most of the rest is due to salmonella in eggs

  94. Osteoporosis due to calcium loss from bones is mainly due to the sulphur content in meat & casein protein in milk that cause calcium to be lost in the urine - the countries with the highest meat & dairy consumption are those with the highest levels of brittle bones

  95. 50% of people do not have the enzyme to digest milk properly & milk allergy is related to asthma & eczema

  96. Meat eaters have double the rate of Alzheimers disease as Vegans & Vegetarians - some people also think that Parkinsons disease is also linked to meat eating

AND ONE COULD GO ON !


If you've read this far, I hope that you are beginning to see that the Meat & Dairy industry is a major contributor to misery on this planet. It is destroying the health of people in rich countries, starving those in poor countries, it is torturing & killing billions of animals every year and in the meantime it is one of the major factors in the destruction of the environment - so what does the meat & dairy industry have to say in it's defence?


Well their only real point is usually "Meat is tasty" - fair enough a lot of people enjoy the taste of meat - but there are plenty of delicious alternatives (just consider the huge range of vegetarian dishes in Indian cooking - one of the oldest & most sophisticated cuisines in the world) and if you really crave meat & dairy, nowadays there are plenty of healthy non animal alternatives - just look in the supermarket & health food shop. So I hope you will agree it's pretty pathetic to consider all the evidence & then say "well I know you're right about the environment & health & the animals - but I just love my meat"
