SHARP ETIQUETTE: Tips To Stay Sharp At Meetings

… Sharp Stories are presented in association with Steinlager Premium Light….

Finding it hard to stay sharp in staff meetings? Why not try some of these neat little exercises.

Not only will it make meetings more interesting but your fellow work mates will become suddenly more alert and maintain a respectful distance:

During a meeting:

1. Write the words 'he fancies you' on your pad and show it to the person next to you while indicating with your pen

2. Respond to a serious question with: 'I don't know what to say, obviously I'm flattered, but it's all happened so fast'

3. Reconstruct the meeting in front of you using action figures and when anyone moves re-arrange the figures accordingly

4. Draw a chalk circle around one of the chairs then avoid sitting on it when the meeting starts. When someone does eventually sit in it,cover your mouth and gasp

5. Turn your back on the meeting and sit facing the window with your legs stretched out. Announce that you 'love this dirty town'
