hitting the gym to release stress is not nearly as effective as hitting the people who caused the stress to begin with.

i haven't tried that solution, but it sounds attractive.

They say in the employee handbook that I can't hit people. :(

Wow. So hard to decide... :)

[lcohen]

someone had to say it:

embrace the power of "and."

[metaphortunate]

Not sure if that says good things about your work or not. :D

My building's secretary has a "the floggings will continue until morale improves" sign up. I try not to comment...

[lcohen]

you could counter with "the morale will continue until the floggings improve."

I like this version much better than my initial reaction, which was "...for certain values of 'effective.'"

I've heard that it's better to hit them with an object. That way you don't hurt your hand.

[lcohen]

oooh--good tip!

I guess it depends on your take on the concept of delayed gratification.

Also, it would be funny to make assumptions about a workplace based on how buff everyone is.
