What We Talk About At Work

My boss is in Denver. My coworker is on bedrest. My office is mostly silent as everyone is anticipating the long weekend. So we’re doing little else than bothering each other on gchat. Here’s the best thing I’ve heard in a long time, from anyone. And by heard I mean, “Was typed to me over gchat”. Same difference…:

Coworker: OMG. THEY HAVE THE SAME LETTERS! COCKSLAP & CAPSLOCK! I saw one and TOTALLY thought you meant the other!

Ladies and Gentlemen, I cannot think of a better way to sum up my work week than that.

PS: I have a half day on Thursday and am going to the beach with Ninja directly afterwards. Consider yourselves invited, local readers.

    I want to beach!

    (I don’t get a half-day, though, and I’m not taking off work because my boss is buying lunch)

    It’s okay, you get brunch the next day. AND a big party. :)

    I’ll see you on the beach, if by beach you mean in Vegas, and by on you mean drunk and gambling in, and if by see you you mean won’t see you because I’ll be.

    Probably could have made this clearer with quotes.

    That’s got to be the best thing I’ve read all week.

    I wish I had an office that shared Gchats like that. We talk about work on IM :(

    I may or may not have spiked my diet coke this afternoon with vodka (I keep a bottle of it on my desk, not in…on). That about sums up my work day.

    I have Thursday off so I too, may be at the beach. Look for the girl who looks hungover and is slathering her pasty white skin with SPF 50.

    Jenny -
    She’s ordering in Armenian food for you, right?

    Pete -
    I had to re-read that like, 10 times aloud because I kept focusing on “by on you” and wondering “What in the FUCK does he MEAN?”

    Deutlich -
    Thankfully, it’s only Tuesday. But yes, it was our little workplace revelation.

    Mom In Real Life -
    I think I will. I might have to change some wording around, since it was said directly to me.

    Jessica -
    The person who said this to me is gonna be my new boss. I’m pretty excited. We all talk about work in person, IM is a WHOLE different animal. A dirty, dirty, nympho animal.

    TheTrixie -
    Haha, I’m packing booze if you need a hair-of-the-dog.

    Mmhmm. So when I see you on Thursday night, I am going to be a fat.

    I’ll do my damndest! Hopefully, it won’t rain!

    Jenny -
    OH NOES! BIRTHDAY FAT!

    Apollo Creed -
    I want to watch porn. No fair. :(
