Office Bureaucrats

I have had fun dreaming up responses to these.

One that I particularly like is "Gosh I hate to tell you that this response won't fly. I know it will slightly tarnish the knocker on your front door but I must kick this upstairs immediately."

Of course be prepared to watch your back...which you should be doing anyway.
