Great gag gift for HR

Are you constantly putting out fires? Check out this little red fire extinguisher: [url]http://www.officeplayground.com/opg/minfirex.html[/url]

Its just over four inches tall and squirts water. I thought it was a pretty cute gag gift for anyone in HR. Also, its only $1.49 so it probably fits in your HR budget.

p.s. I purchased the "affirmation ball" too. Its like the old "Magic 8 Ball" but it says nice, encouraging things like "Your'e a winner!" At least, I think it said "winner".

Paul!

What a great site. I found tons of things I want for the HR department!

I couldn't find the one thing I really want on the site, though. When I worked for a construction company, our straight-laced, Harvard-educated, Arthur Anderson (back when they were reputable) CPA-turned-president had a sleek little box on his desk with three buttons - machine gun sound, death ray sound and shotgun. Whenever he would get tired of a conversation or a visitor he would "gun 'em down." I thought that was the neatest thing and I want one for my office. x;-)

I would like that too, but bet you won't find in these days of violence in the work place.

But that's another thread altogether and believe me, you don't want to get me started down that road! x;-) You know, though, I probably could find an old one at a thrift store or something and put it in my office. But then, before I zap I have the zappee sign a release of all claims and an acknowledgment that he/she understands it is meant as humor. What do you think?

You have a magic wand, too?! I've tried waving mine on occasion to "poof!" people away, but seems to do no good.

This is a great site. I think I am doing all my department holiday shopping here this year. Sonny, can you fax me a copy of your magic wand, I've had a few ee issues that need to be poofed away!

My controller has a magic wand. He doesn't use it - it just hangs on his wall. I think I might steal it.

We've often discussed the need to charge in to one of our schools with a fire extinguisher full of Midol to put out the fires caused by PMS.

With Halloween just around the corner, I'll bet you can find a magic wand just about anywhere.
