The Demotivating Calendar

You know those motivational calendars that you always see in offices that have pictures of beautiful landscapes and awe-inspiring motivational messages under headings like Succeed, Attitude, and Teamwork?  They’re really annoying, aren’t they?  Do these motivational calendars really motivate you to be better or do they sort of make you throw up a little in your mouth every time you see one?  If that’s the case, then you’ll definitely want to get a 2008 Demotivational Calendar

Put some fun into your kitchen! We've tracked down the best novelty salt and pepper shakers to brighten up your table!

This "demotivating" calendar cleverly expresses what you really feel about your job and your boss while still providing you with beautiful, yet not-so-inspiring pictures each month.  Rather than trying to inspire you with positive messages of hope, this calendar says it like it is and does its best to crush all of your hopes, goals, and dreams.  Under headings like Customer Disservice, Procrastination, and Idiocy, you’ll be able to meet those daily corporate challenges with skepticism, distrust, and unhappiness, just like your father and your father’s father had to.080208-demotivational-calendar.jpg

You will also get a chuckle out of the important dates that are marked on the calendar that you might want to reflect upon.  For instance, on August 4th you can mull over the fact that this was the day that Skynet supposedly went online, causing computers to take over the world, which eventually led to Terminators being transported through time to save the human race.  Or you can annoy your coworkers on September 19th while celebrating Talk Like a Pirate Day!

So, if you or someone you know has a bad attitude and loathes every minute of the daily grind, this calendar is just the thing for them.  Also makes a great Boss’s Day gift!
