Partly Crazy With a Chance of Showers

There was water on my desk when I came into work today. Not a lot, but quite a few drops. The cleaning crew never actually cleans our desks, and I'm not in the habit of hosing down my work station before I go home so the origin of this water is unknown.

I mention it to Crazy McCoworker and she says 'Oh, Voice-Like-A-Nailgun-Supervisor noticed that a week or so ago. She just wiped it up before you came in.' Gee, thanks for letting me know, asshats!

A few minutes later I leaned back in my chair to stretch and I notice there's a sprinkler directly above my desk. That's right folks, that sprinkler, and only that spinkler, leaks!! But evidently, only at night and only every few weeks, and even then, not that much. I've been here 3 years, and only now does VLANS decide to tell me this.


Crazy McCoworker then tried to cheer me up by saying they discovered proof of the Loch Ness Monster.

No, really. No. Really.

Um, okay ...

Ohh like another fuzzy picture proof or ate a person while tons of people watched proof?!

P.S. Word on the water. Cover your desk in plastic at night. Not only will it be dry, but everyone will think you are so insane they will leave you alone! Maybe one of those huge plastic car covers? And start calling your desk your pimped out ride?

more along the person-eating-proff lines... it allegedly ate a deer, and it's amphibious and CMC is apparently getting her news from The Onion.

Liz, you totally have the funniest work stories ever! Are they hiring where you work? Just hearing these tales make me wnat to write another sitcom about crazy office people, I can't imagine the creative boost I'd get from being in that actual environment!
Well, look at it this way - at least you have some form of entertainment to get you through the day!

That would be silly...why don't you just put a shower cap on the sprinkler!

See that's the beauty of the shower cap idea - they're not that strong, so if the sprinklers went on it would burst off and fling itself across the room!!! And Liz would sit under it as if she just said the W word on You Can't Do That On Television

super-ewww!

I'm pretty sure that sooo-PAH ewww!

Look, you're all being ridiculous:

Firstly, you can't toast marshmallows over burning flesh because it doesn't smolder enough. Duh!

Secondly, Plastic covers, shower caps and water balloons are all just silly... everyone knows I'll spend the rest of my tenure at this 'job' holding a frilly pink parasol over my head.
