I call it the Amen Method: Go to: http://www.ulc.net/ and fill out the form to be ordained as a minister. Once you've received your ordination status via email. Go into your bosses office and request a name plate change, business card change, email signature change, and have them update the website to add Rev. (reverend) in front of your name, anywhere it appears in company documention.

I call it the Hippy/Enviromentalist: Insist on the whole office using paper that is 100%post consumer waste. Then switch all the office coffee to fair trade and insist on bio-degradable cups. Then stop bathing saying that it wastes water and pollutes local streams, giving anyone that has properly groomed themselves the evil eye. Stop wearing shoes and wear clothing only made from hemp. Finally start composting in your cubicle. I missed the contest! :(

State that whatever your current employer has offert them you can do it for half the price. Create a private email account and write an anonymous mail to your boss with your original email attached.

I found it searching for jokes to tell at a Toastmasters meeting. I actually recognized the second one - it was on a list of ways to make your co-workers think you’re crazy.
