I also miss that loud office guy talking about his weekend nightclub conquests.Posted on September 26, 2006 Life at WorkBy J. BirdSomeone told my parents I no longer have a job. That wasn't part of the plan. Now I must find the leaker and exact revenge.Posted on September 25, 2006 Life at WorkBy J.

BirdI have no pressing engagements. Just a pressing, re-occuring thought: "Well, hell, do I really need to get out of my pajamas today?"Posted on September 18, 2006 Life at WorkBy J. BirdMy dad is a totally rational person until he hears me say something like, "I think I'm going to apply to be a private eye."

BirdWhen I get home from work, my dog has to wait til I've changed into my "real" clothes before I'll play with him, not because I don't want my work clothes to get dirty, but because I can't stand to wear them for another minute.Posted on September 06, 2006 Life at WorkBy J. BirdThere's currently a battle in the suite in which I work. It's between individuals who work on either side of reception. It's the office equivalent of Civil War.Posted on September 05, 2006 |
