Post you monday morning blues here:
So, I walk into my office this morning and as I near my desk I feel something WET! I look down only to discover that the water fountain in the office that BACKS up to mine has malfunctioned over the weekend causing wet carpets throughout!

I have just spend the last 30 minutes drying off my computer and phone lines! :mad:

Now it's on to trying to SALVAGE files that were on the floor! :mad: :nuke:

HAPPY F*CKING MONDAY!!!

2. Mine doesn't quite compare, but
Edited on Mon Oct-17-05 09:03 AM by Shell Beau
today my office is doing a home-cooked lunch for the bosses of the office (Boss's Day). Which if you are a man, you are considered a boss (seriously!! :mad:). I was supposed to bring a pie and I forgot ALL about it. Oh well! I am not too concerned. I hate when we do this in my office b/c all the WOMEN cook or bring something for the MEN. I am self-employed, so I am really my own boss. I do work for someone specific but I hate how sexist this damn office is!! Screw this Monday!

3. not as bad as some blues but
basement of our office was flooded over the weekend and the lower cardboard boxes of previous years records are soaked and stephanie miller is not on the radio this am as the station has gone to oldies it looks like.

on a positive note, i have leftover pizza (meatlovers deluxe) for lunch.

4. Wet files are horrible!
Aren't they?

I have just put a big pile in front of my small desk top fan, hopefully that will help dry them up.

The smell is starting to make me headachy.... damn.

5. I'm back in the office...
after a long weekend at home with my parents and 6 year old nephew. I'd much rather be with the little guy having light saber fights in the yard than here in the office trying to force myself to do work. Blech.

Edited on Mon Oct-17-05 09:30 AM by bertha katzenengel
to DU to find gloating. You'd think they were the Yankees. :eyes: Christ - even I knew the Sox would win this series.

Sorry about the water & files & stuff, Texasgal.

22. I'm surrounded by Astros fans here, so it's ok.
I didn't go to the U of TX, and I'm not an Astros fan. Sports radio in this town can be hard to listen to at times. :D

26. I started hating baseball when the strike went down.
I used to LOVE it!

But after seeing those sniveling millionaire players whining, it kinda turned me off. Although I have been getting pieces here and there on the series.

I play on a team here in Austin...intermural... does that count? :hi:
