We’ve all had days like this. Phones ringing…and ringing…and ringing… Giant shipment of widgets went to Oshkosh instead of Walla Walla. 3 pm presentation moved up to 11 am (and your TPS report is only half done). Yeeeeooowww!
Spit out that herbal tea, lose the stress toy and write a fun caption.
Here at TFG marketing and stress management, we love doing goofy stuff like this. Someone posts a wacky picture and then we each submit our caption ideas for it. On top of being a blast to do, it helps reduce those urges to smack a co-worker on the noggin with a ketchup-filled sock.
So, give this a try at your place.
Check out a few captions from some formerly frazzled Fowlerites:

Wheelin’ & dealin’! ~ Shawn
Ever have one of those days where everybody’s pushing you around? ~ Lenni
In college, they don’t tell you that your career is a vehicle with no steering wheel. ~ Dacia
Business is rollin’! ~ Shawn
I always knew my rodeo days would come in handy! ~ Lenni
Our version of “marketing spin.” ~ Shawn
Oh, you like ridin’ dirty? Well, I like ridin’ clean, in a suit, on a chair with wheels. Gangsta! ~ Amanda
We ride a lotta bull around here. ~ Lenni
