So's your face

Hey there, friends. It's been awhile, hasn't it?

Um, I'm bored at work. Here is what I have learned today.

1) Despite all that I initially thought, the man who generally has conversations while staring at my chest has still turned out to be a pretty good boss so far. Plus!

2) Corporate America is pretty fun. It's like being on a field trip with a bunch of people you would never think you'd like to hang out with. So, while you're at it, you can also pretend that your mom packed that PB & J for you, and wrote you a note on a napkin like the other kids' moms did, and didn't forget to pick you up that time in first grade, until all the teachers had left for the day and it was just you and that [creepy] janitor.

3) Just because you whisper "it's because you're a minority" to the girl who got passed up for a promotion, doesn't mean other people can't hear it. Try instead, "it's because you're a single mother," or the always friendly, "you're not getting more attractive as age hits you more aggressively, you know." People love honesty.

4) "Your mom" and "so's your face" are totally appropriate responses to bullying or threatening by your least favorite cubicle mate, aka bully. Just ask mine.

Obviously, our blog is in desperate need of help from chatouille. Come back! I know you're unemployed now, so you should blog.
