  1. “When leaving work late, you will go unnoticed. When you leave work early, you will meet the boss in the parking lot !!!”
    Truer words….

  2. I got a pay raise in the military that lowered my take home pay. I think I was an Ensign and went over “x” years of service due to being prior enlisted.

  3. Corollary to Kauffman’s Paradox — the lower your position the longer your job title.

  4. Ed- Yep!

    Dan- LOL, sadly true…

    Hereso- Yep, same here… sigh

    Frank- Oh…GOOD one!!!

  5. Murphy’s Law: Whatever can go wrong, will.
    O’toole’s Commentary: Murphy was an optimist.
    Programmer’s Axiom #1: Neither man ever had to write code.

    Old Indian Wisdom: Eat a live toad first thing in the morning, and nothing worse will happen all day.

  6. The first law for wives is why I always write a list, even if it’s only a couple of items. That way, when she says I forgot something, I can point to the list that she gave me.

  7. Blumstead’s Law:

    If you are irreplaceable, you are unpromotable.

    • The ‘proof’ for that ‘law’ is that there is always another politician waiting to be elected.

    • Worked with a guy who decided that being the only person who knew his job was a guaranteed position. He refused to train a backup, so they fired him, and told the product engineer to figure it out and train a couple people to do it.
      I’ve worked with/around at least one person at every company with that attitude. Stupid. Some were sneaky and trained their backup to do it wrong, making them look better. Usually this was discovered, but it was costly.
