    I'm not sure how you carry yourself but when I'm leaving somewhere people are going to miss me, and I them.
    I have often been given a bottle of Gin and a bit of a talk-up send off, to respond with "cheers, laters" followed by a run for the door wouldn't be very polite now would it?

    I feel in all working environments it is deeply important to realise they're not resources, they're human beings.

    I am adorable and get on very well with everyone I work with. I just don’t think I need to be publically 'thanked'.

    Not a pun but worth an airing, with apologies to A.J.Rimmer: "Over the months of this project, I've come to regard you as people I met"

    While I've been here I've earned <insert figure permies can only dream of>. No need for anything further as they'll probably kick you out at that point.

    My previous profession was a bus driver but that was cut short when a very large breasted lady boarded and said '£4.20 to Oldham' I gave her a fiver and told her to keep the change. That was the last time I drove a bus.

    My previous role was at London Zoo as an Elephant Circumciser, the money wasn't very good but I got some very big tips. Alas, I got fired for getting the sack....
