The business wisdom of David Brent:

Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part.

Put the key of despair into the lock of apathy. Turn the knob of mediocrity slowly and open the gates of despondency - welcome to a day in the average office.

Eagles may soar high, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines.

Statistics are like a lamp-post to a drunken man - more for leaning on than illumination.

Never do today that which will become someone else’s responsibility tomorrow.

Avoid employing unlucky people - throw half of the pile of CVs in the bin without reading them.

If work was so good, the rich would have kept more of it for themselves.

Remember that age and treachery will always triumph over youth and ability.

I thought I could see the light at the end of the tunnel, but it was just some bastard with a torch, bringing me more work.

You have to be 100% behind someone, before you can stab them in the back.

Is your work done?  Are all pigs fed, watered and ready to fly?

Coutesy Jim Craig
