It's Freezing in Here: Tales from the office

When my coworker got his tie caught in the paper shredder.

Do coworkers realize that when they ask "to pick your brain" they are making more work for you AND stealing your ideas?

My worst nightmare come true: The girl in front of me in rush-hour rat race got her foot stuck in the revolving door! Then she turned around & glared at me like I pushed the door too hard. It wasn't me- it was physics!!

Butts be hungry today

When my tiny slice of birthday cake came around, I was so bitter that I looked at everyone else with their normal-sized slices and thought to myself: "fatties!"

The amount of communication it takes to explain to someone how to do something- I would always rather do it myself.

You’re like: I know I’m gonna spill this coffee/seltzer/cup of Oreo crumbs- so I’ll be EXTRA careful.

No workplace is complete without an office nemesis. Mine quit a year ago but has since been replaced by a newer, eviler version who thwarts me by smiling and talking over me. I get back at her by CCing everyone from the email prior to the one she sent, rendering her powerless. Sneaky!

We all have to eat at our desks sometimes, but did you really need to bring egg salad??

I may be among the bizarre few who like being outside in sticky hot New York City August- because I work in a meat locker.

I tried to take a nap in the bathroom, but another girl came in and sat silently in another stall the whole time I was there. She may have been trying to nap too, but it was pretty awkward so I didn't really feel rested.

I somehow accidentally set a meeting End Date to 8/23/2050, and my whole life flashed in front of my eyes.

Boredom level: Craigslist free stuff

Boredom level: writing Yelp reviews

Just another day in the office.
