In Crazy or at Work?, You Tube Favorites by Heidi Nyburg on Monday, June 18, 2007

Ah, Monday, that gloriously sucky intro to the crazy work week of a day. You’re all tucked in at your cubicle, your lunch in is the fridge and then boom, it hits you, maybe work feels crazy because you’re not even supposed to be there. Not in that cubicle, not in that building, not next to that crazy gum smacking admin. And not only are you in the wrong building, it’s quite possible that you’re in the wrong galaxy.

This morning we awoke feeling something was amiss so naturally we turned to the internets for help and as usual the WWW Gods were able to help us get to the root of the problem. We found our real identity, our true calling if you will. And you can find yours too! Just take this quiz and when you are shown your true destiny, simply walk into your boss’s office and look him/her in the eye and say “I can no longer work here as I am Luke Skywalker and I have a higher calling.”

Keep in mind your results may vary, you might end up saying that you are in fact Chewbacca or Boba Fett. Whatever. The point is, you are in the wrong building, get the hell out of there and get in the game! We’ve got work to do. Note: If you end up being Jar Jar Binks, please accept our condolences. Also you might just want to skip the whole walking into the bosses office part and just leave.

Our Results: (we rule!)

May the force be with you!
