MONDAY AFTERNOON EDIT
It has been brought to my attention that these jokes at management's expense work both ways. So in the interests of even-handedness, here is the second question of the Pop Quiz.

2) When Karl comes to your desk with a file in his hand and says "Look, I don't want to be a total dick about this", he means...

a) He doesn't want to be a total dick about this
b) He has every intention of being a total dick about this

Yeah, b) & c). I somehow have the idea that I can annul the dickliness of all my actions by announcing that I don't want to be a dick.
