Oh the places you'll go, Oh the things you will see...
Our amazing office manager (who I love and who has taken a complete beating through this move) was told by someone, who was told by someone else, who saw a different someone else using the DISH BRUSH FROM THE KITCHEN TO SCRUB THEIR SHOE.
The End.
The End.
We moved!
So we moved into a new building recently, my company and I.
We were hyped up to the point of annoyance by the higher ups. They really drank the Kool-aid of this new building. It was even said at a meeting "We got really cool new phone numbers." Someone actually said that, out loud.
At that point, we knew something was up, they were pushing the hard sell a bit too hard.
Is it a known fact that most people don't like change? Cause they don't. The real entertainment comes in observing how people RESPOND to change, especially a change they have decided in advance they won't like.
Allow me to share with you the adventures of my new office as we find new stuff almost every day that is just. plain. wrong. about this building and the people who are forced to work in it and choose to passive aggressively fight the power.
Entry 1~
Everyone has people in their office who use half a sugar packet, hopefully you don't even know it because they are not savages. These non-savage type people will use the part of the packet they want and discard the rest be cause WHO THE EFF is going to grab an open sugar packet off the counter at work and finish that sucker off? NO ONE, that's who. Not even my co-worker, who does this:
I get that you don't want to be wasteful, but even you won't revisit your tainted sugar packet even though you obviously expect someone else to, because you keep right on doing it:
I'm sorry you hate the new building and I'm even sorrier that you won't allow yourself the pleasure of using one entire packet of sugar in the raw in your scott-damn coffee.
