Welcome to our on-site fitness center. We encourage all employees to enjoy the benefits exercise provides.

First of all there is the McClatchy broom sweep. You simply grab the nearest broom and clean your floor. Then we have the McClatchy trash can dump. Flexing your knees, bend over and pick up one or two trash cans near your cubicle and carry them to the trash bin outside where you usually file your evaluations. Next try the aerobic Windex swirl. Simply grab the Windex from the supply closet nearest you and some paper towels and then, with clean the windows with a counter clockwise motion.

A fit employee is a happy employee and a happy employee is a healthy employee and healthy is good because as soon as Obama's health plan is a reality, we are going to dump your employee health plan.

Enjoy!

You forgot about JUMPING to conclusions, CLIMBING your co-workers back side, RIDING your underling's posterior, FLYING off the handle, SHIRKING responsibilities,and BACK STABBING! Actually the broom sweep is a multi-tasking objective where the individual places the broom handle securely between the buttocks and performs this task while engaging in other productive activities. (Did I forget anything?)
