The Jack Bauer Workplace Challenge - 1/15/06

Are these things that you say during a typical day at work? If not, then your name is obviously not Jack Bauer, the government agent played by Keifer Sutherland on "24." Each week I'll post my favorite line - taken wildly out of context - uttered by Jack and let you imagine how YOU would have used it during your day at work. Since the Season Premiere is a four-hour/two-day event it will start out with a bang:

7AM HOUR
"The only reason you're still conscious is that I don't want to carry you."
(ed. note: He said this to someone he later said he cared for very much!)

8AM HOUR
"You're gonna tell me what I want to know - it's just a question of how much you want it to hurt."
(ed. note: On the other hand, I don't think this person is going to make the Bauer Christmas Card list. In other words, he was not someone Jack cared for very much. Plus when confronted with Jack Bauer, the guy chose suicide, so it really wouldn't make sense to send him a Christmas card.)

To honor Jack, please try to use these lines in work today. If you do use a line, please share by adding a comment to this post. Have fun!
