Not only that but it's somewhat unimaginative
I'm not a corporate B.S. type. I used to refer to ties as "Polyester P**k*r Pointers" for a reason.
They knew I knew what I was doing from previous actions like:
1). Saving files from dying hard drives cluster by cluster to
floppy disks and rebuilding them on the new drives
2). Determining that all their network problems had been caused by cheap contractors using cheaper cable-TV coax instead of LAN cable
3). Finding that said cable wasn't cut to required lengths, but each connection was a 50-foot roll with the ends dropped from the ceiling to the PCs (this one was quite lucrative... they let me keep all the removed cable after I replaced it with the proper stuff, and being an Amateur Radio operator with thousands of feet of free antenna cable and connections to other HAMs...
)
They would relax the dress standards the following day if we were paged in, so I started wearing one of my favorite Tees to work after outages... The one where "Dogbert" (look him up) is walking away from a pile of smashed computers with a bat, caption reads:
"The Network is down but I feel better!" (Sorry, I can't finds an image
)
