Alright, I've done it. I officially feel like a 13 year old girl... feel the urge to download ICQ and hang out in chat rooms. But here's my justification: I maintain this blog at work. That's right, when I should be doing important type things, I am instead going to be blogging. How freakin' sweet is that. That's right TimmyTapeworm, I get PAID while working on my blog. We'll see how well I keep this up, but here's what you all can do to keep me honest - annoy the hell outta me when I forget to post. Also, I need you all to comment, every time, every post, or else I'll get bored with this and quit real quick. There, you have your orders...
So what's happened at work today? Well, They're currently "expanding" and the area where the 30 of use who work for the Water/Sewer Line Protection Progam branch of the Water Company are homeless. We live in a trailer outside of the main building, and it blows. It stinks too - 30 people in the ol' double wide castle is in violation of more health codes than I'd like to recognize.
Today, we actually overflowed however, and 4 of us got bumped into an empty corner back in the main building. So there we were, isolated from the world, and when I got to my new desk - I didn't even have my own chair, so that was the last straw - I send this mass email out:
And I said, I don't care if they lay me off either, because I told, I told Bill that if they move my desk one more time, then, then I'm, I'm quitting, I'm going to quit. And, and I told Don too, because they've moved my desk four times already this year, and I used to be over by the window, and I could see the squirrels, and they were merry, but then, they switched from the Swingline to the Boston stapler, but I kept my Swingline stapler because it didn't bind up as much, and I kept the staples for the Swingline stapler and it's not okay because if they take my stapler then I'll set the building on fire.
Ironically enough, my boss came over to check on us shortly there after, and we got moved again. To our own little pod (group of about 12 cubicals). Its quite nice. The catch is, it isn't really ours. So if the powers that be (meaning ANYONE ELSE in the company) decide they want to use this pod, we're back on the street again. Stupid Commies.
Anyways, That's about all for my first post. Here's what you can expect to see in the future: insightful stories, copies of the random crap that people send us (Last Friday, when opening mail, I guy had sent us back a clipping of one of our mailers. It was the part that said: "YES! I want protection and peace of mind. Enroll me in..." and he crossed out mind and wrote "ass".) Sadly thats one of the wittiest customers we've had. I dunno, I'll keep it entertaining, and if not, blast me in the comments. If its too long, Blast me in the comments. If I don't post enough... you get the idea.
Peace out!
