I get all kind of questions in my capacity as as HR/Admin/Building Manager person. Here is the latest:
Manager Girl: I need you to order something.
ME: Okay, what?
Manager Girl (holds out stapler) This is broken. I have bad luck with staplers. This is the third one to break.
Me: (takes stapler, opens it) Ah, well, you've put the staples in upside down. The pointy parts go on the bottom. There you go.
Manager Girl: Can you get me a new one?
Me: (thinking fast) Let's trade staplers. You can have mine.
Manager Gril: Are you sure? Because I was having trouble with that one.
bless her ever-loving heart.
Maybe you should type up some directions on breathing in case she forgets.
Holy shit, Robin has the same people in her office that I have in mine.
headdesk Seriously, how did she become a manager?
That is quite impressive.
But I must know, is it a Swingline?
Gud, thanks for that list. I'm depressed now, though. Why did VW nuke the VR6? There go my chances of getting another one -- I compared all their engine specs, and the VR6 is better than the V6.
The Mini is a appealing -- but I wonder if the cute would get to me in the end. In the bad way of get to, I mean. This is why I never research before buying, dammit.
Why did VW nuke the VR6?
It's the only way she had to be sure.
nonstop blanket coverage
Yeah, it's this phase of "this is news so we have to talk about it" and "um, we have nothing to say, do we?". We always get those, too.
Me: (thinking fast)
Robin, the staplers' charmerer.
