Default OT Outlook on Life

Shared by a friend, passing it on to others.


1) Life isn't like a box of chocolates, it's more like a jar of jalapeños --
you never know what's going to burn your butt.

2) I love deadlines. I especially like the Whooshing sound they make as they
go flying by.

3) Tell me what you need, and I'll tell you how to get along without it.

4) Needing someone is like needing a parachute. If they aren't there the
first time, chances are you won't be needing them again.

5) I don't have an attitude problem, you have a perception problem.

6) Last night I lay in bed looking up at the stars in the sky and I thought
to myself, where the heck is the ceiling?

7) My reality check bounced.

8) On the keyboard of life, always keep one finger on the escape key.

9) I don't suffer from stress. I am a carrier!

10) You are slower than a herd of turtles stampeding through peanut butter.

11) Everyone is someone else's weirdo.

12) Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level then beat
you with experience.

13) Be careful . . .a pat on the back is only a few centimetres from a kick
in the butt.

14) Don't be irreplaceable -- if you can't be replaced, you won't be
promoted.

15) The more crap you put up with, the more crap you are going to get.

16) You can go anywhere you want if you look serious and carry a clipboard.

17) So this isn't Home Sweet Home . . . Adjust!

18) Ring bell for maid service. If no answer, do it yourself!

19) I came, I saw, I decided to order take out.

20) Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves for they shall never cease
to be amused.

21) I'd live life in the fast lane, but I am married to a speed bump.

22) What should you give a man who has everything? A woman to show him how
to work it!

23) How can you tell which bottle contains her PMS/Change of Life medicine?
It's the one with bite marks on the cap!

I know about this, when I worked for one company, I found out that one
could walk around all the halls if one was carrying a one or more
sheets of paper. I didn't do this but I thought that I saw others
doing it.

Then in the plant, as I was working as a coordinator (between us and
contractors) I found that by walking around with my note book, and
occasionally jotting down notes, the "workmen" really did do more
work. They thought that I was writing down their tag numbers!

I like one I read in a novel: "Life is uncertain. Eat dessert first."

Does this person you know need quilts cause she works so slowly?
Is this why her quilts all have peanut butter turtle tracks running across
them?

I dont think so... hmmmm let me think... no.. no... this person you are
referring to has finished two quilts this summer.. no turtle tracks. .. her
quilts DO have spider webs of ancient lineage on them before they get
finished however. They take a lot of pondering breaks. :-)
Diana, not quite as slow as turtles in peanut buttter... more like a sloth
on a coffee break
