Get Back to Work
FOUND by Chris Holcomb
in Willimantic, CT
A co-worker knocked the metal piece off the top of her cubicle, and hidden underneath were a few notes. I made a photocopy before replacing them. it's almost like a time capsule; I am thinking of adding "Obama '08" on my own scrap.

We collect FOUND stuff: love letters, birthday cards, kids' homework,
to-do lists, ticket stubs, poetry on napkins, telephone bills, doodles -
anything that gives a glimpse into someone
else's life. Anything goes...
you should "get out while you still can!" to "smoke weed everyday" and then "get back to work!".
Nothing much to say about the "Find" but the team mascot for Willimantic High School just can't be good.
I've been to Willimantic- good advice
Better to write Mondale '84. That'll really shock the next guy.
said it was hidden in there somewhere, but when we got back to work we were so baked we forgot to look for it. It's probably still there for all i know, but I'm done with that place for good, wouldn't go back for anything. You?
What I like is the psychedelic Os in the second half of the note. Groovy, man!
Pretty sure it says "get ojt while you still can". (On the job training). Before you get fired for smoking weed every day. Now get back to work.
Looks like someone loves their herbal cigarettes...
I would write: "So long and thanks for all the fish."
Mario, very good idea! Confused me for a moment, too.
Mario: I bought an authentic "Reagan Bush '84" bumper sticker on Ebay and put it on my truck. People do a double-take because my truck isn't old enough to have that sticker on it.
I was really looking for an "I Like Ike" sticker but evidently they didn't make them back then.
"Tippecanoe and Tyler Too" was out of the question.
Every person I know that smokes weed everyday does not work let alone going back to it. I like the spiral "O"'s trippy man
If you look at this, the handwriting is different for all three lines. This reminds me of notes I've written with friends during particularly boring classes in college. Maybe these people were in an excruciatingly long staff meeting and thinking about the things they should be doing instead...?
The puffy exclamation point after "work" looks a little like a loaf of French bread. Be a bread winner; go back to work. Smoke weed every day after work. Then the bread will taste really really good.
Finally a spam question that's about art, not math! Color-mixing is something I can do!
(didn't someone post recently as "put teddy roosevelt back in office" or something like that?)
I know a number of people who smoke weed every day and still work hard at their jobs and side projects. Pheobe, the ones you know must just be slackers. Either that or they have some super goooooood weeeeeed, maaaaannn.
My note would have to say, "Excuse me, I believe you have my stapler..."
I used to work at this climbing store in LA where NOT smoking weed was work.
please drop my Bally Shoes and Fly Green socks into your time capsule
Obama 08? you mean Carl Marx 08....Obama was the biggest mistake America ever made and when he finally flushes us all down the financial toilet hopefully the world will wake up and come out of their fog of adoration.
@ Phoebe Muse...im feeling a little defensive right now...
I work 6am-4pm 5 days a week at a hotel, 2-3 days a week I work part time at a restaurant, and in September i'll be going back to school, while keeping my two jobs.
Now that doesnt really leave me with much time to smoke weed, but I can guarantee you I smoke every chance I get.
weird..
WHOOOOOAAAAAA Finsterton!!!
Take it easy killer!!
I voted for that guy :)
If it's good enough for Superman, it's good enough for me.

is farmer back from his....oh wait a minute...never mind??if so, glad to have you back farmer:)
food for thought:
I too have a 50 hour a week job (running my own business) work Saturdays for a community based organisation and volunteer at various places around town. I also manage to smoke weed everyday. I understand how many people have a stereotypical view of pot smokers but the reality for many is far different
I can't take it easy while my liberty and my rights are slowly being bled away by a communist whose primary goal is to turn America into a socialist welfare state.I can't take it easy while my hard earned money is being pissed away to benefit overbloated government programs which have no goals other than to extend the reach of the government over the people. I can't take it easy when a man who lied so blatantly and so eloquently during his campaign is doing the very things he promised not to do. and I certainly can't take it easy when we have a congress so corrupt and greedy that they would forsake our troops and our veterans to increase welfare and unemployment benefits for illegal aliens and those without ambition. Obama is a communist who should NEVER have been put into office. What boggles my mind is how many people drank the koolaide the left-wing press was pouring and actually voted for this guy. I still can't even fathom it and wrap my head around it.A revolution is coming, and America will be America again....
willimantic is dubbed the heroin capital of new england. so on the bright side ..... at least this person is partaking in a healthier, less illegal activity than this town is known for.
Hey Finsterton. STFU.
If we don't want to hear what you have to say about a Find, we DEFINITELY don't want a sermon on your lopsided political views.
LMAO...lemming....sheep....idiot
OK, calm down everyone.
You folks there, write your little "Obama '08" notes, and hide them in the office furniture.
And you folks over there, write your "Jindal '08" or "Palin '08" or whatver you want, and hide those notes.
Take your squabbling outside, and leave the rest of us alone. Or Ms. P won't write a "Good News Wednesday" note to either of your parents!
You've been warned.
yeah, Finkerton. We kinda noticed that about you. The first step toward fixing your problem, though, is admitting that you HAVE a problem. I commend you for doing so.
When I was in college, I was briefly involved with a kid who smoked pot every three hours or so. He used to come into my room and say stuff like "Baby, I just need to make sure you know: trees are fuckin' amazing," while I was trying to get ready for my first class of the day. He also believed that if you watched a horror movie the night before you went snow boarding you would get into a terrible accident because "There'd be gore in your head, man. You can't escape that. Your head is your FATE."
@ Finsterton: I really took offense to your comments. I can tell what kind of person you are. Keep your opinions to yourself, or go post them somewhere else, like a right-wing website.
Larry was well-known for smoking pot in the office bathrooms. His fellow cubicle-occupants had different views on this habit. Three of them—Linda, Jerry, and Mark—decided to leave him a note and stick it under the metal piece in his cubicle. Mark, known for his "stick-it-to-the-man" attitude, wrote, "Get out while you still can!" when he was out of view of the hidden cameras. Linda, the bossy perfectionist, simply wrote "Get back to work," and passed the paper to Jerry. Jerry, who was a very carefree, joking man who always wore the same stained jacket, wrote simply, "Smoke weed every day." Unfortunately for the three of them, Larry never actually found the note.
kid in play: I still know the words to "Ladi Dadi" although I'm not sure if I'm proud of that fact. I always what Bally shoes were...
uh, if it smoking pot was legal, I would certainly engage in that activity. I work many jobs to stay afloat...since one of my jobs involves teaching kids, I can't take the risk of illegal drug activity.
But if it was legal...
But then, who is the bozo who wants to legalize it then add a $50 tax to every ounce??
@finsterton: Talk about a bad party guest. We're here to have fun, not rant our political views. There are plenty of sites for that. Please, before your McCarthyism type rants ruin the fun, go to one of them.
Somebody give finsterton a joint.
@finsterton, you are laughably ignorant, ranting things you've heard people say on TV without an original thought in your little pea-brain. Read a book. and come back when you can behave. meanwhile I've forwarded your comments to the Dept. of Homeland Security. you sound like a domestic terrorist to me
planning, thew most ignorant comment that could ever be made on the subject just got made by you, feel free to forward my comments to anyone you want. They can check my FBI file and military service record too for all I care. I've sacrificed more of myself for this country with my little pinky than you ever will in your entire life. I have felt this way about politics since Nixon was in office, you child. Just the fact you defend Obama with ridiculous comments shows me how weak minded you are. Go turn on MSNBC and get brainwashed some more. My views are based on facts and truth but because you are a typical knee-jerk liberal you have to go on the attack. Well attack all you want it won't affect the fact Obama's a communist...LOL
@finsterston: Wow, dude. No one defended or offended anyone except you. This isn't a political forum. You obviously need to vent, do it somewhere where they appreciate it. You're harshing our mellow. :)
Smoke weed every day!
I smoke two joints in the morning
I smoke two joints at night,
I smoke two joints in the afternoon
and it makes me feel alright
smoke two joints in time of peace
into the time of war
smoke two joints before i smoke two joints
and then i smoke some more
yeah thats what i do, hey
Rest easy, my children. You are all right; you are all wrong And it's all part of a larger plan.
Prepare ye.
My mom is a product of the late 60's and still smokes pot every morning at age 59. Except when I'm there visiting with my kids- because I won't allow it around them.
She works harder and is more reliable than 90% of the people I've worked with in my life.
(Finny, I voted against Obama. And you're coming across as a pompous boor.)
Thanks, God. Amen to that. Nothing can change the face of things to come.
P.S. And thanks for creating the noble weed.
ELITISM IS PATRIOTISM!!!
Wow, shit really did hit the fan since i was at work. Finsterton, you really are a pompous boor, well said Mom. Im very glad that my political comment only offended Finsterton (thank you for bringing politics to found, douche)
@ go food for thought- we've got this!!
smoke weed everyday!! (responsibly) ;)
oh man , it was soooooo easy. LMAO
I find this very amusing -
Here's what I did while I was rotting in a cube working for Blue Cross -

@HPD: Did you really write that? I haven't had a chance to read the whole thing (stupid Adult Responsibilities!). But I bookmarked it for later.
Finsterton - Good for you! The original poster started it with the, "Obama '08" BS. Try submitting something here and mention that you voted for Bush two times, or McCain/Palin. I'm sure this would quickly become a political forum. It seems that the Internet is a continuation of the Government Indoctrination Camps (public schools) that brainwashed all these communists.
I work good,I work hard.. but first take care of head! .. guitar solo...
@Mom - Yes it's mine (for real).
Drew all the pictures sitting at my desk - and then did all the illustration in Photoshop. I hated that job!!!
@HPD, that's an awesome site!! I am totally digging it....and apparently I am right this from the 1970's. It's RAD Dude..ok I am now in the 80's. It's Excellent....the 90's. It's totally Hot..ok now I am back to present day..almost. :)
@ HPD, great stuff, you are VERY talented, and should be published. I forwarded that link to everyone I know that's dying the slow death in corporate america
If you say so. I got a total CREEP vibe from following that link.
But then again, I've never done time in a cubicle in the soulless corporate wasteland.
