Develop Good Posture

Most office workers know that sitting still in an office chair for 8 hours every day can have some pretty serious negative side effects.  Aside from the obvious ones, like bad circulation from lack of exercise, deteriorating mental focus, and the occasional desire to go jump off a bridge, many people (myself included) also develop some wacky posture as a result of excessive chair slouching.

Metal Rubber Band Gun

In the past I have shown my readers some pretty thrifty office pranks that hopefully wound up souring someone’s day. Well if that someone was you, then your day of redemption may just have arrived.

The Anti-Theft Lunch Bag

If there’s one thing I have learned in the corporate world, its that you can never hide your lunches quite well enough. While I believe that most people are intrinsically good, there appears to be some sort of ethical loophole in most offices where people are able to casually justify stealing someone elses lunch.

If you work in an office where anything short of hiding your lunch bag inside of a empty carton of soy milk will get your lunch stolen, then you might consider investing in these very clever Anti-Theft Lunch Bags.

The Anti-Theft Lunch Bags are regular sandwich bags that feature green splotches printed on both sides, giving your carefully crafted sandwich a rather moldy appearance which is sure to fend off any potential lunch thieves.
