Starfleet

The Teddy Bear has just sent a newsletter and it incorporates these words of wisdom:

The top ten signs you work for Starfleet....

10 - You lecture the neighborhood kids selling lemonade on ways to improve their process.
9 - You get all excited when it's Saturday so you can wear shorts to work.
8 - You refer to the tomatoes grown in your garden as deliverables.
7 - You find you really need Freelance or Powerpoint to explain what you do for a living.
6 - You normally eat out of vending machines and at the most expensive restaurant in town within the same week.
5 - You think that "progressing an action plan" and "calendarizing a project" are acceptable English phrases.
4 - You know the people at faraway hotels better than your next-door neighbours.
3 - You ask your friends to "think outside the box" when making Friday night plans.
2 - You think Einstein would have been more effective had he put his ideas into a matrix.

And, the number one sign you work for Starfleet...

1 - You think a "half-day" means leaving at 5 o'clock.
