Dunk the Boss!
Today is the monthly fundraiser day at work. The fundraiser usually consists of “pay $5 and you can wear jeans” and is donated to a different charity every month. Not terribly annoying, unlike the United Way fundraisers and forced donations that some companies do. Today’s fundraiser was a little different. In addition to a $5 donation to wear jeans, a dunk tank was set up at one of our buildings, and various supervisors rotated through. At 12:30, my boss took his turn. We closed the Help Desk phones, and the entire IT department went over to take turns. Once we discovered the new guy was a ringer, some of us paid for him to take multiple turns. Lucky for the boss it is warm out!
Sitting around, waiting for someone to hit the target:
Going Down! Bye Boss!


Hmmm….I wonder if the principals at school would be up for something like that. Now THERE Is a fundraiser the kids would be excited about!
