Monday Morning
Ed-U-Upper!

Our "Monday Morning Ed-U-Upper" has become the most widely read e-mail periodical directed to educators.

It's free and goes all over the world every Monday morning. You will find it short, filled with humor, quotes, motivational pieces, fresh ideas, and bits of this and that.

We hope you'll try it. It's easy to get on, and very easy to get off.

 

 

 

School Secretary, Vol. I Desk Signs...

Note: Depending on the fonts installed on your computer, and the way your computer browser is set up, these desk signs may not display properly.

(Ask for a free 10-pack sample the next time you place an order. Then you'll be able to see the quality, and the fun, of these "Desk Signs.")

 

  RELAX AND TAKE HEART...

The only person who ever got all the work
done by Friday was Robinson Crusoe!


 

DO YOU WANT TO TALK TO
  THE MAN IN CHARGE...

Or, the woman who knows what's going on?


 

FRIENDLY SCHOOL
  SECRETARY...

Thanks for keeping me that way!

 


 

  I DO NOT REPEAT GOSSIP...

So listen carefully!

 


 

  MY SHORT-TERM MEMORY...

Ain't what it...something...something...

 


 

IF YOU FIND ANY MISTAKES
  IN MY WORK...

Please consider that they are there for a purpose.
I try to please everyone and there is always someone
looking for mistakes!


 

  FOR SERVICE...

Ring bell, whistle, shout, scream, whimper, beg,
threaten, grovel, whine..if none of these seem
to work, go away!


 

  I'LL BE RIGHT BACK...

Had to take my paycheck to the bank.
It's too little to go by itself!


 

SORRY, LACK OF PLANNING
  ON YOUR PART...

Does not make it an emergency on my part!


 

THE ONLY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
  THIS PLACE AND THE TITANIC...

They had a band!


 

I MUST NOT BE BUSY
  ENOUGH...

I still have time to panic!


 

YOU WANT IT WHEN?


 

IF YOU ARE GROUCHY, IRRITABLE,
  OR JUST PLAIN MEAN...

There will be a $10.00 charge
for putting up with you!


 

  PARDON ME...

But you have obviously mistaken me for
someone who actually cares about what
you have to say!


 

  MY JOB IS A TEST...

It is only a test. Had it been a real job, I would
have received raises, promotions, and recognition!


 

IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR
SOMEBODY WITH A LITTLE
  AUTHORITY...

I've got about as little as anybody!


 

WARNING!

The "machine" sitting at this desk is subject to
breakdowns during periods of critical need!


 

I DON'T MIND THE RAT
  RACE AROUND HERE...

But a little more cheese would be nice!


 

IT'S AMAZING WHAT YOU
  CAN ACCOMPLISH...

With a little hard work and a lot of whining!


 

ASK NOT WHAT YOUR SECRETARY
  CAN DO FOR YOU...

But what you can do for your secretary!


 

I CAN USUALLY PLEASE ABOUT
  TWO PEOPLE EVERY DAY...

Sorry, but the second one just left!


 

PLEASE DON'T GO
  AWAY MAD...

Just go away!

 

 YOU MEAN...

You want the revised revision of the
original revised revision revised?


 

  ALL I ASK FOR...

Is a chance to prove that money
can't buy happiness!


 

I ALWAYS TRY TO GO
  THE EXTRA MILE...

But my boss keeps finding me
and brings me back!


 

  YOUR SECRETS ARE SAFE...

With me and all my friends!


 

  I PRETEND TO WORK...

They pretend to pay me!


 

IF YOU DON'T HAVE ANYTHING
  NICE TO SAY...

Come sit next to me!


 

YES, MY BOSS COMPLETED
  THE IQ TESTS JUST FINE...

The results were negative!


 

  A CLEAN DESK...

Is the sign of a very sick and disturbed mind!


 

  THE BAD NEWS IS...

I am not quite sure of what I am doing.
The good news is—I am almost finished!


 

OF COURSE I DON'T
  LOOK BUSY...

I did it right the first time!


 

YOU MEAN THAT YOU
  WANT ME TO RUSH...

Your rush job ahead of the rush job
I'm rushing to rush!


 

THIS ONLY LOOKS LIKE
  A DESK...

It's actually a large trash can
with drawers and four legs!


 

THE BUCK DOESN'T EVEN
SLOW DOWN HERE!

 


 

WEL.COM

 


 

  DON'T YOU DARE...

Place another thing on this desk!


ABOUT YOUR REQUEST THAT I GET
  THAT PROJECT DONE TODAY...

1. No way.
2. In your best dreams.
3. When your office freezes over.
4. Seen any pigs fly lately?
5. Are you sure you're from this planet?

  SECRETARY SURVIVAL TIPS...

If it rings, put in on hold;
If it clanks, call the custodian;
It it's handwritten, type it;
If it's typed, copy it;
If it's copied, file it;
If it's a friend, take a break
If it's a boss, look busy;
If it's Friday, forget it!

Keep in mind, computer-generated images don't come close to matching the quality and impact of these 3.5" x 2" Desk Signs sitting in a business-card sized holder on your desk.
