Occupational Tourette's Syndrome

Occupational Tourette's Syndrome is most often associated with the exclamation of obscene words or socially inappropriate and derogatory remarks initiated by the fact of being at work. There are two known forms of O.T.S., acute and chronic. This is determined by the type of employment and duration.

Tom: Fu**ing BullSh*t!!! Piece of Sh*t! Son of a Bit*h!

Jake: What's the matter Tom?

Tom: Oh nothing. It just seems as soon as I come to work I start to swear. Don't know what it is?

Jake: Sounds like Occupational Tourette's Syndrome to me.

Approaching occupational neurosis

The sense of exponential dread that occurs when one more closely nears one's workplace. If one is driving down a hill to said workplace the effect is sometimes described as Hell like.

(In a carpool on a public service ad) "What's wrong Jake? Your face has gone white."

"Look down there at the bottom of the hill and to the right!"

"OH MY GOD! IT"S THAT PLACE WE WORK!"

(A psychologist enters the ad and states paternally; "This is approaching occupational neurosis. Don't let it happen to you or anyone you care about. Resign or seek professional help immediately!"

occupation

Not just the job you choose, but any activity of daily living one engages in.

Bathing, eating, cooking, and crafts are just a few examples of occupation. When you hear Occupational Therapist, please do not respod with, "so you find jobs for people." They don't!
