Tests

Today, for reasons not fully understood by me, I was walking up to various people at work today, and saying, "Give me one reason why I shouldn't kick your ass." I then waited for a response. If they couldn't come up with a reason, my shoe hit their butt. Just a tap, I really don't want to start harassing people at work, I think it was largely innocuous, especially compared to the psychological torture this process was apparently providing. I also picked my marks carefully.

Anyway, at least half of the people failed the test. I mean, really, shouldn't you always have at least one reason why someone shouldn't kick your ass? Suggestion: Think of one right now, and file it away. Perhaps for the next time you see me. Perhaps someone else will ask.

I think as well, this test was a way to see how well poeple think on their feet. I was having one of my "systems admininistration is merely thinking" moments.

If you like, post your no-ass-kicking reasons here, and they can count for the next time I see you.
