OT: Everyone's nightmare cubemate?

And from one of those semi–endless training presentations, this one
about the Americans with Disabilities Act:

If Paris Hilton worked for the company, could she bring her Chihuahua
Tinkerbelle to work?
Yes – but only if:
(1) Paris had a disability
(2) her health care provider stated that it was medically necessary
for her to have Tinkerbelle at work
(3) Tinkerbelle was a trained service animal
(4) Tinkerbelle posed no threat to persons or property, and
(5) Tinkerbelle's presence in the workplace did not cause an undue
hardship to the company
* * * * * * * *
To which I'll say:
(1) Does Paris have an ability... much less a disability?
(2) She can probably pay one enough to get them to say that.
(3) Paris can probably teach Tinkerbelle to do something.
(4) Yap, yap, yap... a threat to everyone in earshot!!!
(5) Tinkerbelle's house training has left something to be desired (as
seen on TV)!

My condolences on having to attend a lecture that probably took twice
as long as necessary.
I had a boss once who called those 3–day training seminars
"techo–weenie vacations" because they would cover about 6 hours worth
of material in 3 days. The number of breaks for donuts, juice and soda
would exceed the number of hours of training. I sued to hate them, and
dread the work that piled up while I was gone.
Ob fashion:
Once at a training seminar (mid–90's), I was wearing mary jane style Dr
Martens, and one of the other geekies complemented me.
