Soooo…the temp who is no longer a temp walks around the office barefoot. :::shudder::: D and I were talking about this the other day when we hit upon the idea of really pissing her off by scattering staples around the department. Well, I didn’t get the chance to try that, but…
One of the other girls mentioned how easy it is to lose a paperclip but you never find them again. I immediately – without even thinking about it – say, “Yeah, I lost a thumbtack in here the other day. Still haven’t found it. You girls who go barefoot be careful!”
At dinner Thursday I tell Gene and the boy about this. They think it’s funny BECAUSE IT IS. I tell them that our next plan is to get the accounting manager (senior accountant?) to stop smacking her gum…chomp chomp, smack smack, ick ick.
The boy pipes up, “Tell her you lost thumbtacks in six packages of gum and you can’t find them.”
What a kid!
