working in the 21st century

You know you're working in the 21st century when...

• You accidentally enter your password on the microwave.
• You haven't played solitaire with real cards in years.
• You have a list of 15 phone numbers to reach your 3 colleagues.
• You e-mail the person who works at the desk next to you.
• Your reason for not staying in touch with friends is that they don't have e-mail addresses.
• When you go home after a long day at work you still answer the phone in a business manner.
• When you make phone calls from home, you accidentally dial "9" to get an outside line.
• You've sat at the same desk for four years and worked for three different companies.
• You learn about your redundancy on the 11 o'clock news.
• Your boss doesn't have the ability to do your job.
• Contractors outnumber permanent staff and are more likely to get long-service awards.
