the main office

The coworker and I spent the day at the main office with the Boss. Surprisingly, it wasn’t too bad. The Boss’ wife is being fazed out of the company (we think), and so she wasn’t at the meeting… which means no marital fighting. A bad, bad thing in the workplace. There wasn’t any yelling or being mean AND we got to eat Thai food again. Bliss. πŸ™‚

However, there was one little incident… I was discussing this new (terrible, very bad, no good) program that the Boss wanted me to get and use to design the images of the report covers we give away on one of our sites. I despise this program. You can only use it on PCs and it’s just very… icky. And I can design these covers freehand, so my response was “WTF?”

Anyway, so I was saying, “Well, I don’t really like it. I designed the basic cover using the program, then I had to take it into ImageReady and fuck with it..” and OHMYGOD, I just said fuck to my boss. I was so appalled. I blushed and covered my mouth while the Boss, the general manager and the coworker busted out laughing. I couldn’t stop apologizing.

The GM looked at me and said, “Don’t worry. He [the Boss] cusses all the time.” The laughter continued.

Ten minutes later, the Boss used the f-word in a sentence, paused, looked at me and said, “Did I get you to start swearing?” More laughter ensued as I assured him that, no, he had not.

Yeah. It was one of those days… lol.

  6. your the one with the subconscious thoughts. It doesn’t take Freud to figure out that you wanna get shagged by the boss.

    Your the wack job that wants to give a wack job. You should consult Dr. Ruth about your sexual angst. I can only combat your denial, she can help you get shagged by the boss.

  8. Thanks Insider and Grampa for your help in figuring out the last blog. As in life I try to make things more complicated than they really are…

    I need:

    To step out into the experiences of others and use that to make an attitude change
    To chill out & not take her reality shows so seriously
    Ideas and volunteers to NOAA
    To be aware of her own anger
    Our help and support now more than ever
    A bone marrow transplant
    A little hocus-pocus from dear departed Aunt Dimity
    Sex but is too busy-minded to be aware of that fact (oooh trust me, IÒ€ℒm all too aware!!)
    To cut her mom some slack
    Cafeene (sic) to stay awake!!!

    What a fun way to kill time on a Friday night! Apparently I also need to get a life…
