Ettiquette for My Brothers and Sisters on November 5th


To keep the peace and to keep a lot of folks from getting nervous, this is a list of acceptable celebrations and behaviors we should probably avoid - at least for the first few days:

1. No crying, hugging or shouting "Thank you Lord" - at least not in public.

2. No high-fives - at least not unless the area is clear and there are no witnesses.

3. No laughing at the McCain/Palin supporters - Well at least no pointing!

4. No calling in sick on November 5th. They'll get nervous if too many of us don't show up. (Try to be on time and not your normal late arrival)

5. We're allowed to give each other knowing winks or nods in passing. Just try to keep from grinning too hard.

6. No singing loudly, We've come this Far By Faith. (it will be acceptable to hum softly)

7. No bringing of barbecue ribs or fried chicken for lunch in the company lunchroom for at least a week. (no chitterlings at all!)

8. No leaving Kool-aid packages at the water fountain. (this might be a sign that poor folks might be getting a break through)

9. No Cupid Shuffle or Electric Slide during breaks. (this could indicate a little too much excitement)

10. Please no "Moving On Up" music. (try to remain humble)

11. No doing the George Jefferson dance. (unless you're in your office with the door closed)

12. Please try not to yell----BOOOO YAH! or IN YOUR FACE! to McCain/Palin supporters.

13. Just in case you're wondering...Doing the Running Man, cabbage patch, or a backhand spring on the highway is 100% okay.
