Employee Morale
Crazy T-shirt Day

Contributed by loyal subscriber, Erika Bialek

We have crazy t-shirt day in May when employees can wear any (appropriate) t-shirt they wish. The crazier the better.

A panel judges the shirts and the winner's picture is emailed around the company.

Joke of the Week

Items from real résumés and cover letters that were printed in the Fortune Magazine:

• I was working for my mom until she decided to move.

• Marital status: single. Unmarried. Unengaged. Uninvolved. No commitments.

• I have an excellent track record, although I am not a horse.

• I am loyal to my employer at all costs....Please feel free to respond to my résumé on my office voice mail.

• I have become completely paranoid, trusting completely no one and absolutely nothing.

• My goal is to be a meteorologist. But since I possess no training in meteorology, I suppose I should try stock brokerage.
