    12 Things You Should Never Say at Work
    Lynn Lievonen
    <strong>Never say it at work</strong><br />
    TWELVE THINGS YOU'LL NEVER HEAR AN EMPLOYEE TELL HIS/HER BOSS<br />
    <br />
    1. Never give me work in the morning. Always wait until 5:00 and then bring it to me. The challenge of a deadline is always refreshing. <br />
    <br />
    2. If it's really a "rush job," run in and interrupt me every 10 minutes to inquire how it's going. That greatly aids my efficiency. <br />
    <br />
    3. Always leave without telling anyone where you're going. It gives me a chance to be creative when someone asks where you are. <br />
    <br />
    4. If my arms are full of papers, boxes, books or supplies, don't open the door for me. I might need to learn how to function as a paraplegic in future and opening doors is good training. <br />
    <br />
    5. If you give me more than one job to do, don't tell me which is the priority. Let me guess. <br />
    <br />
    6. Do your best to keep me late. I like the office and really have nowhere to go or anything to do.<br />
    <br />
    7. If a job I do pleases you, keep it a secret. Leaks like that could get me a promotion. <br />
    <br />
    8. If you don't like my work, tell everyone. I like my name to be popular in conversations. <br />
    <br />
    9. If you have special instructions for a job, don't write them down. In fact, save them until the job is almost done. <br />
    <br />
    10. Never introduce me to the people you're with. When you refer to them later, my shrewd deductions will identify them. <br />
    <br />
    11. Be nice to me only when the job I'm doing for you could really change your life. <br />
    <br />
    12. Tell me all your little problems. No one else has any and it's nice to know someone is less fortunate.
