working for "the man." - a story from corporate america's front lines
Today at work, a women that I have never met sent me an instant message. She was soliciting some assistance on a project. I told her I was happy to help but was tied up in meetings all morning and asked if we could discuss in the afternoon. Her reply?
"Sounds great!! Thank you so very, berry much! :-)"
Wow. Apparently, I am now employed at Smurf Village.

Sounds like someone has a case of the mondays...
even though it is Friday
that is not okay.
montezuma's revenge is nothing but good ol' fashioned diarhea. adult diapers should never even enter the picture......and neither should "very, berry much"
i'm thinking she might have been referring to gummy bears. it seems more like something they would say. remember gummy beary juice? maybe some of that would help you today.
erg. cheese can sometimes be overlooked when spoken, but typed and available for reviewing - not okay.
maybe strawberry shortcake? gummy bears were more about being happy and bouncing, not about berry things...hmmmm
bottom line though...unless your a kindegarten teacher that should probably not come out of ones mouth!
so did you get her number?
im with mike, sounds like the whole "help with a project" thing was a front. and hey, so she likes berries if you know what i mean...
Jeff, you better watch your back when blogging about things at your work. Ever hear of dooce.com? She's pretty famous in the blogworld for losing her job b/c she blogged about it. On second thought, keep it up...maybe you'll become famous. It is TYOTD.
Where have I been? I haven't read the 'Driv' in a couple weeks and now all these hilarious posts! This should be my homepage. This is smurfin' awesome.
