Unintentional comedy

February 18th, 2008 | by TJ |

TJ, to co-worker: Thanks for the help. It [my workload] just really exploded today.

Other co-worker, passing by: Do you want some gas medicine?

TJ, confused: Huh, what?

Other co-worker, hands to tummy: Gas medicine? You want some?

TJ, self-conscious hands to tummy: Hey, what? What are you trying to say?

Other co-worker, confused: Didn’t you just say, “I feel really bloated today?”

TJ, relieved: Ooooh. No.

    Are you working today? Come on girl! don’t you know it is presidents day! Celebrate Lincoln, or Washington or whatever this day is.

    I often forget that not everybody works for the government, and don’t get all teh holidays. And even better, since i quit working for the feds and went with the local county government. We get 18 holidays a year, plus 2 floating and a “extra” day that has to be used between Christmas and New Years.

    Yeah I suck

    LOL

    I am however a little concerned about your co-worker and their apparent ease of access to “Gas Medicine”.

    Hopefully you are not seated too close.

    Accountants, and people who work with them, don’t get days off until June. ;)
