  1. can't find anybody in this new office setup. Maybe we should print balloons with our faces on them and float them above the cubes. Festive!
  2. was not aware that Crocs were appropriate business casual attire.
  3. diluting some sleeping pills in the water cooler made the perkiness gulf between the water drinkers and the coffee quaffers much much wider.
  4. "This bus has priority seating for the elderly and handicapped". I'd like to see them try and have one that doesn't... and ride it, instead.
  5. just noticed that in addition to the three signs posted outside the mens' room door there are also two more nearby. If three was overkill...
  6. had enough of listening to music with headphones. I plugged in speakers, and if everybody else doesn't like it, well, they can drone me out.
  7. heard them walking around a slightly important new hire. Prepared a nice looking work area, minimized non-work windows. They skipped my row.
  8. knows that if I can hear what's coming out of your headphones, over the noise of what's coming out of mine, you are in some serious trouble.
  9. sees that somebody cleaned out the fridge - leaving the condiments. Fine for the ketchup and mustard, but not so much for the whipped cream.
  10. back in the office. Everybody asks me, "Happy to be back?" I chuckle and reply, "No. I'd much rather be surrounded by tourists than idiots."
  11. been relaxing on the beach in an undisclosed location. Much much better than pushing paper and staring at spreadsheets. Dreading going back.
  12. knew one coworker recently had a baby, but didn't send us pictures so far. People are curious, so I tacked up a stock photo of an ugly baby.
  13. filed away a banana, but not where you'd expect. Instead filing it under 'B', at the front of the drawer, back further, under 'F' for fruit.
  14. noticed the network's running slowly, and pages/applications aren't loading consistently. I should be able to milk this for at least 1 hour.
  15. woke up around noon, didn't panic after remembering plans to remain home sick today. Thinking about ordering some pizzas to my boss's house.
  16. signed up to bring the most essential materials/ingredients for a party tomorrow. Also planning to be sick at home for the rest of the week.
  17. scheduling meetings in the high-traffic meeting rooms with the express intent of canceling them five minutes beforehand. Also, inviting all.
  18. watched a guy drop freshly-toasted bread into the garbage can accidentally this morning. He ate it anyway, and, apparently, survived so far.
  19. thinking the security guards not only can't hear me, but can't even lip read my morning greeting. Tomorrow I'll try "Forget you, my friend".
  20. wondering if there's really any other expression joggers could have. One that doesn't look like extreme constipation or sweaty astonishment.
