What makes you unique at work?

    I was the only hockey fan in both my shops as well. In fact, my answering machine message after one of the Devils' cup victories featured me ending by yelling "Go Devils." As a result, I had quite a few people hang up and leave no message.

    I like beer. And revelry that can often occasion it.

    No one can slam a phone like me.
    The rest of the staff can hear the tension building when I'm on the phone and when I say "good bye" they're already wincing, waiting for the receiver to meet the base at a high velocity, over and over again.

    Right, but that doesn't make me unique in my office.

    Pay attention, would you? :-\

    I would think my accent sets me well apart from everyone else in the department, let alone the office.

    My hair. Because I still have it.

    One thing is probably that I make my own schedule. I come in an hour later than everyone else, but on the flipside I can be seen here at any hours of the night. I also walk around the office in my sock feet and have half my wardrobe here.

    Otherwise, I think I keep the office loose with my quick wit, ultra conservative viewpoints, and paper ball fights.

    I'm the wallflower who everyone thinks is going to off himself. :D

    Really, I'm great. Nothing against them. It just takes a long time -- I've been here a few months -- for me to warm up to people.

    My brief stint in the NBA, followed by a successful porn career, usually makes me a topic of discussion in the office.

    I suppose I am somewhat unique given that I am the only member of our sports staff with both a law degree and a medical license. Though I am popular, because if anyone in the office ever needs a drink coaster, I am always happy to provide one of the APSE plaques that always seem to be cluttered around my desk.

    Also, I seem to be well liked, because I still manage to be "one of the guys" even though my rap album went platinum.
