A co-worker just (cheerily) told me he has something to give me that's not appropriate at work. Then he disappeared.

Are you now in hiding?

I dislike having an office so close to the men's restroom.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Maybe it's a penis in a cup.

Like an overgrown swizzle stick?

Matt, are you an exempt employee or not? They don't have to pay exempt employees more for working longer hours, right?

I don't think I'm exempt, if I'm reading the FLSA laws correctly. Certainly not if having hiring/firing power over 2 fulltime employees remains one of the qualifiers.

It's become a media-highlighted pissing contest.

Am I alone or overly cynical in thinking that all the publicity about DiCaprio giving money to relief efforts was studio-helmed PR to drum up interest in his new film? When the anchor on ABC news asked him about particulars this morning, he got a startled look and started saying "I don't know the specifics..." before he caught himself.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Maybe it's a penis in a cup.

Actually, that's perfectly normal. On athletic fields.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Maybe it's a penis in a cup.

I'm seeing more of a champagne flute.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

having hiring/firing power over 2 fulltime employees remains one of the qualifiers.

I don't think so. I'm exempt, and have always been -- it's more been a function of hourly or salaried, as I read it.

Now I can no longer look this co-worker in the face. Best not look at him at all, just in case.

That depends on the penis, doesn't it?

I'm just being optimistic. If you're going to get a penis in a cup, it might as well be a big one. Why would someone go to all the trouble for a barely perceptable one?

Now I can no longer look this co-worker in the face. Best not look at him at all, just in case.

Well I wonder why. I'd refrain from drinking beverages too. No need for the imagination to ruin the pleasure of a good cup of coffee, tea, or alcohol.
