PRESSURE TACTICS
At the place where I was contracting, Jose, who managed contractors, hadn't yet given me a bathroom key. So every time I had to use the bathroom, I'd have to walk across the street. I nagged him for two weeks, but he kept promising it the next day. Finally, I'd had enough.
"Jose, could you get me a key to the bathroom?"
"Sure, I'll get it to you tomorrow."
"If you don't give me the key today, I'll shit on your desk."
"What?!!"
"When you come into work tomorrow, you'll find a big, black, steaming pile of turds on your desk blotter with files buzzing around it."
He got me a key.
