There are many ways to get sacked at work these days but “fired by gadget” is a new one on me. Unless it’s a pneumatic 3-ft long sex toy and you’re chasing people around the office, what else could possibly get you fired?

Now if drinking at work does not do it for you… at #5 we have the ultimate distraction…

Wii toys. Great at wasting many a employee hours.

Thrustmaster has added three Wii goodies to its line-up, headed by the T-Go Kart NW wireless steering wheel. The company says the sporty rubber

grip is inspired by real go-karts [for comfort and grip, you know] and the Wiimote fits snugly in the upper section.

No drinkin and no games… how ’bout just being a bit creepy… #4 is the bomb-aquaruim…

just to give your boss a look into your true workplace fantasies.bomb-aquarium.jpg

Nothing like those early, Monday morning meetings about Monthly Stationary Budgets to make you want to blow your brains out but, help is at hand.
well, it is not live amo, so no one gets blown up… but it sure will make the boss think about what really goes on in that head of yours. I mean who the hell has a bomb as a fish tank?

#3 makes you look like you are paying attention, for a minute at best

A true waste of time that even looks like you are doing something productive. Well till they find out all you are doing is sketching stick figures.

You need a piece of stationery that no one else has, and, is designed to let you pretend that you’re still listening when you’re really not. Meet the ingenious Etch-a-Sketch Pen, a pen with a miniature Etch-a-Sketch at the top which actually works. The two knobs allow you to create your own mini-masterpieces and a little shake is all it takes to clear it off and start afresh.

So, while your manager is getting apoplectic over the mysterious disappearance of rubber bands, you can nod sagely while sketching his ugly, bulbous head.

at #2 we have The Alien UFO detector…

to really make the boss think you are a freak! To pull this off… well you gotta already be a bit strange so they know you are serious.

Scenario: You meet Jim. He is sweet, kind and most importantly, easy to talk to. It’s as if you’ve known him your whole life. And hugging him, no matter where you may be, feels like home.
