2. Shit. I think I just answered this one in number one. Did I fail? Am I allowed to ask questions? I'm so confused now.

3. 5 o' clock pee em. Because you can conduct the meeting over beers and get everyone loose so even if I'm not making sense, I'd still feel more accomplished than the ridiculous crap we discuss at 7:15am, 8:30am, 9am, and 1pm.
Question 1: not failing yet.
Question 2: not failing yet.
Question 3: failed. Hard.

1. Is it better to be respected or feared?
2. Why
3. You have a very important business meeting. What wine do you pick, and why?
Oh yay!

1. Feared.

2. Fear is an amazing tool and as with any instrument of finesse, requires a skillful hand to wield it effectively. Ironically, we have evolved as a product of fear and our genes are due in part to those who successfully navigated the balance between motivation and paralysis (fight or flight)...those that failed were eaten or trampled. Any primal instinct (love, empathy, anger, survival, etc...) is a powerful motivator, so I choose fear. However, simplistic questions never succeed without involved answers, so I would add engaged management, the removal of doubt, reasonable and attainable goal setting, and an attractive compensation package to the formula.

3. None, because liability and lack of focus and clarity.

1. Your Sheila curbs the alloys on your brand new 340i. Your revenge is?
2. One thing, family aside, you save from your burning house?
3. You sit in the queue in the clap clinic, hoping you're not recognised. The door opens to the treatment room and out walks your Sheila. Run and hide? Or ask her what the fuck she's doing here?

For all:

1. What (if any) type of sickness have you lied about to get out of work?
2. Have you ever gone cow tipping?
3. If you were in the circus, what act would you be?

1) I have never really "lied" about being sick to avoid work except when I was a teenager and didnt realize the value of work ethic, but have def used every excuse in the book when waking up late for work (I am NOT a morning person).

2) Cow tipping was one of my all time favs in high school, especially watching unindoctrinated city kids stand thereand wait to see what happens while I ran for my life, cows are DECEPTIVELY fast!

3) I have a true loathing for circuses (as well as zoos), but if I could be in one WITHOUT animals, I would be the a trapeze artist with a petite partner!

1. I predicted about a week in advance that I would have influenza on Friday so I could sit at home all weekend and play GTA V when it first came out.

2. No, but I have pushed a fat person over, so that basically counts right?

3. The guy that gets to wear the really cool hat that introduces all the shows because I am the main event of everything I do. I set the precedent for how the show is going to go. Women want to bang me in my naughty tent after they see my performance.

No.

Or this dude, assuming the chick in pink is no larger than Biorin


If those roles are taken, this.

Cholera, stomach flu, scabies, ebola, smallpox, and dengue fever. My boss is an absolute dick.

To any/all:

1. If we asked your best friend what is your biggest weakness, how would they answer.

2. Same question regarding your biggest strength?

3. You have a special anniversary or family outing planned, but at the last minute your boss drops an emergency project in your lap. You must stay late at the expense of your time with the family...what do you say and do?

1) I haven't seen a post from you outside of the Banned thread. Why is this?
2) You are driving and see ASBSECU E93 on the side of the road broken down. Would you pull over and give him a lift?
3) Have you ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight?

1. Well, I do post every now and then on some random posts here and there and I don't see you posting in those threads
2. Depends, if I am getting a job at that time, not sure I would want to pull over
3. Not just danced, done a lot more than that. It would be inappropriate to share the details here, maybe over a beer when you come to NC?
