Good morning crew,

Following is a selection of posters that are parodies of the Motivation posters that are so popular in offices these days. Quotes with very appropriate and inspiring pictures...


Incompetence:

"When you earnestly believe you can make up for a lack of skill by doubling your effort, there's no end to what you can't do."

Arrogance:

"The Best Leaders Inspire by Example. When that's not an option, brute intimidation works pretty well too."

Fear:

"Until you have the courage to lose sight of the shore, you will not know the terror of being forever lost at Sea."

Sacrifice:

"Your role may be thankless, but if you are willing to give it your all, you just might bring success to those who out-last you."

and my favorite right now...

Irresponsibility:

"No Single Raindrop believes it is to Blame for the Flood."

Laugh it up,

Joe

My ten-month-old was sitting in her high chair, twisting and moving all over the place. My wife who was trying to feed her said to me, "Straighten her up."

I looked at my daughter and said, "What are you doing with your life? Do you want to be this way forever? It's time to grow up and take some responsibility."

My wife hasn't asked me to help with her since.


*-------------- Guaranteed to Roll Your Eyes --------------*
I was in a couple's home trying to fix their Internet connection. The husband called out to his wife in the other room for the computer password. "Start with a capital S, then 123," she shouted back.

We tried S123 several times, but it didn't work. So we called the wife in. As she input the password, she muttered, "I really don't know what's so difficult about typing Start123."
