Subject: Signs You've Had Too Much of the 90's
From: Jacqueline L Lowell < >


Signs You've Had Too Much of the 90's:

Cleaning up the dining area means getting the fast food
bags out of the back seat of your car.

You think that "progressing an action plan" and "calendarizing
a project" are acceptable English phrases.

You consider 2nd day air delivery painfully slow.

You refer to your dining room table as the flat filing cabinet.

Your reason for not staying in touch with family is that
they do not have e-mail addresses.

You have a "to do list" that includes entries for lunch
and bathroom breaks, and they are usually the ones that
don't get crossed off.

You get all excited when it's Saturday and you can wear
sweats to work.

You assume the question to valet park or not is rhetorical.

You refer to the tomatoes grown in your garden as deliverables.

You find you really need PowerPoint to explain what you do
for a living.

You regularly eat out of vending machines and at the most
expensive restaurant in town within the same week.

You know the people at the airport hotels better than you
know your next door neighbors.

You think a "half-day" means leaving at 5 o'clock.

And the number 1 sign you've had too much of the 90's:

You hear most of your jokes via email instead of in person
