Simple Tag
In all my blogging days this is the simplest tag that I have come across. Thanks to ArtNavy and Krithika for giving me a simple tag.
Here is what I am supposed to do...
1. Grab the closest book.
2. Open to page 123, go down to the fifth sentence. (I didnt follow this, because it didnt make any sense when I start from here)
3. Post the text of next 3 sentences on the blog. (I have typed 5 sentences, so that you can try the following at your office and have fun)
4. Put in also the name of the book and its author.
5. Tag three people
Lets say a co-worker is desperately trying to concentrate on a vital project that is on deadline - the kind where any distraction is a horrible inconvenience. Call a person in the cubicle adjacent to you victim and ask inane questions, like, "In your budget projections, are you assuming a hundred cents to the dollar?" Insist that you have a bad connection and ask the person to speak louder and louder. Not only will the person to whom you;re talking get louder, but he wil be angry. Plus he will be saying completely non-sensical things like, "TWO PEOPLE WITH SMALL HEADS ARE NOT THE SAME AS ONE HEADCOUNT!!!"
This will make your victim insanely angry, but not at you You'll be safe and snug in your cubicle yards away.
Book Name: Joy of work Dilbert's Guide to Finding Happiness at the expense of your co-workers
Author: Scott Adams
I would like to tag Arun, Harish, Jeevan.
Whoa! Three down, one to go...
Varta...
