I bought button at a fun card and party store once that said: "If I promise to miss you, will you please go away?" I bought it for work. I didn't actually wear it, but I tacked to to my bulletin board on selected days, when people would stop by my cubicle to "chat" seemingly endlessly (usually about nothing, really) - while I myself had tons of work to get done. I didn't want to be rude, and never said anything like "Please leave, I'm very busy, I'll catch you later" (maybe I should have) - but sometimes, occasionally, someone would peer closer and read the button, and then look at the piles of work on my desk, and get the message, and leave me alone to get actual work done. - Susan
