You can add a few more laws...

        5. Never do anything that might earn you respect and praise from  your
           subordinates.  This action might cause your subordinates to believe
           you're human and then they would goof off.

        6. Never do anything that might earn you respect and praise from  your
           peers.  This action might  cause your peers to believe you're human
           and then they wouldn't play golf with you.

        7. Never do anything that might earn you respect and praise from  your
           boss. This action might cause your boss to believe you're human and
           then he/she would fire you.

	8. Make simple tasks complicated.  

	9. Make complicated tasks more complicated, go to step 9.

       10. Make tasks when none are needed, go to step 8.
