Having some fun with my secretary

I was walking past my secretary's desk on the way to my office this morning when I saw that she had her Yahoo Messenger window open. I stopped to look at her handle, and suddenly realised the enormous amount of knowledge (and fun) I could have with that information.

Imagine. I could pretend to be someone else (obviously) and ask her what she thought about her boss, thus giving me a no-holds-barred insight no other superior would have. I could also get into the office gossip, and get to know stuff I would otherwise have no way of knowing. I'm so excited I could fall off my chair.

But how do I explain why I'm adding her to my YM list? Where did I get her handle?

There is a member section at Yahoo. Tell her you did a search for people in your local area.
This is a terrible sneaky thing to do.

you sure you want to know what your subordinates think about you? You might treat them differently if they do talk about you behind your back. And if this thing gets out, you may lose respect.

I don't know anything about Yahoo but I am surprised that you are allowed to use it at work.

We had a strict policy against this kind of thing.

It does sound like fun but you may not like what you hear.

queenie - Thanks for the suggestion! You're right, this is sneaky... and I'm loving it :)

linsey - I can't help it... I'm a bad boy :)

jenna howard - That has a nice ring to it, don't you think?

emilyism - If there are any areas I could improve on, wouldn't I want to know what they are? Besides, I hardly think "her boss" would be the main topic of our conversation.

lipstick chronicles - Good to know I've got a partner in crime :)

suze - We're not allowed to use it at work either, but you can only go so far to limit the human spirit. I can't pass up this opportunity, so I guess I'd have to live with not liking what I hear :)

That is ever so naughty, but I like your style!!

just make sure you don't get caught! do a google search on her email and see if it's somewhere on cyberspace and you can say you found it there... or just add her and wing it. i loved Friday's lady from the prestigious brokerage. i've had a lady from this school phone me about about a link on our site about 10x and everytime she asks me where her link is on our site and then looks in the wrong place...arrrgh! but i should try some of that sarcasm rather.

your comment on wetbeyondnelief.blogspot.com cracked me up...then I come here and see this???!!!

You are a HOOT!

Find out what religion she is and pretend to be a chick she met - act offended that she doesn't remember you from your earlier chat. I have all kinds of ways of...well, nevermind...

Sometimes it is better not knowing, what if you don't like what you hear. Ugh! I know that I couldn't resist though.

Hehe. My boss has all his employees in his MSN. It's a good and cheap way to communicate tho.

And.. I can block him if I don feel like hearing his sh*t.

A certain cowgirl from Texas is asking for my help. To spread the word. She has a new place. It can be found by following me. Looking carefully at my site. Or email me. Add a new link. Leave the old.
