Half Eaten Hell

It helps to keep a half eaten meal of some sort on your desk at work. That way, when someone comes up with a task for you, you can give them that mid-bite "can't you see I'm on my lunch?!" glare. Even if it's 4:00 in the afternoon, most people will back away with that confused apology on their face. To get the proper anger to burn effectively in your eyes, you need to walk alllll the way down to Einstien's Bagels and buy a cup of coffee. Then, you need to walk allllll the way back to work carrying the coffee. Finally, while trying to gently set it on your desk, you need to spill the whole damn cup all over the floor and the desk and a few important legal documents. That'll piss you off enough to ward off even the most "emergency e-filing" task.

Grrr! Then go outside and beligerently smoke a cigarette less than the required 15 feet from the office building's entrance. Make sure to look in all the windows.

Yikes. I hope that spilling coffee part is hypothetical, and that it didn't really happen.

getting 1 hour of sleep helps with this "unapproachable" look youre talking about.
