Someone asked me how they should decorate their office walls. This is
what I came up with in 10 minutes:
- A museum of old computers parts that have been removed from broken
machines
- Hang your manager in effigy
- Bikini babe calendars on one side and hot hunks on the other with a
sign that says
"<<-- Odd weeks Even weeks-->>"
- A timeline of the universe, with the corporate death marked only a
couple years off
- A timeline of the universe, with obvious things wrong. (like humans
before dinosaurs, or be more subtle and see who notices).
- Use a digital camera to take pictures of the back of the heads of
each of your co-workers and place them on your wall so that a ray drawn
from you, through their picture, and extended outward would pass
through their cubicle. When someone asks, "Where does Joe sit?" you
can point at the back of his head and say "He went that way!"
- Take pictures of your co-workers, and cut the pictures into 3 parts
(a head, middle, and legs) and arrange them on velcro so that you can
mix and match. Part of "new employee orientation" would be to visit
your cube and have their picture taken. If you do this with a digital
camera, you could make a web page that could make random
selections.
- Fill out IRS tax forms for 1996, 1997, 1998, and 1999 with
obviously (or maybe not so obviously) fake numbers. You can get old
tax forms by writing to the IRS (they might have them on the web
site).
