1 - Attendance at the company picnic (held on Copacabana beach from the third Friday in January until the second Tuesday in March) is compulsory.
2 - Although no formal dress code will be enforced employees agree that if they turn up for work looking like a spod (eg. button-up cardigans, short-sleeved shirts especially if worn with a tie, anything branded with the company logo) they may be the subject of extreme and sustained mockery.
3 - No mingers.

* Fridays are also known as "Forsythe Fridays", where the content of conversation will not, punishable by death, be allowed to consist outside of quotes by the legendary man himself, Bruce Forsythe. An amusing example is thus;
Worker 1: "Nice to see you to see youuuuu!!!"
Worker 2: "Nice to see you to see youuuu!!!!"
Both: "........Nice!"
...
...Hilarity all round.

if i were MD my first action would be to put MD (geddit) in the watercoolers, thus increasing workplace morale.

If i were MD of a company then my rules would be...
1. Anyone who reaches their target gets to drink their weight in any tipple of their choice (not in one sitting obviously) paid for by 'The Company'.
2. Every morning the receptionist will serve up Soreen. Soreen will also be provided for any board meetings, including Monday morning chit chat about weekends.
3. You can leave work as soon as you have done all of your work.
on Fridays we would troll 4chan aswell.

In addition to weekends every employee must choose at least one week day off.
Any worker who does not partake in a full hours lunch break with at least 1 alcoholic beverage will be denied there weekday off.
Your manager is always responsible, anyone found to be passing the blame down the line will be forced to buy everybody's lunch drinks for the week

5 - Any pictures of babies, husbands or other "loved ones" placed in or around the work station must be offset by an equal or greater number of pictures of hot roller derby chicks (see rule 3) only in fancier frames. Or better yet one of them snacky digital ones.

I dunno, I couldn't comment. Trolling seems to be a pointless venture altogether, to be honest.*
*Funny as fuck, though.

At my old office there was this thing called cake friday...basically everyone took it in turns to bring in a cake. Shame on them. I got my mother's friend to bake mine. No time wasted. No ingredients used.
