Creatures of Habit.

Hi Blog stalkers,

I have to post this!!!!

Look I'm the first to admit it, we are all creatures of habit to some extent. For instance I do have my favorite stall at work, but hey if it's occupied you wont be seeing monkey man pooping his pants.

But today, this made me smile.

It's the Boss's birthday and his wife had organised a surprise party in the office (He was on a day off. Isn't it wonderful what women will do for you. 1 day free from the office and hey presto she magically lands you back in the last place you want to be. Women you gotta love'em or you'd be up on a murder 1 charge!!)

Sorry I digress, so just before lunch time at 12 noon, all the office lights are turned off for his arrival. The streamers and confetti are launched, photos taken all in the relative darkness of the unlit office. Anyway we all adjourn to the conference room for lunch, cake and a couple of different versions of Happy Birthday. Then smack on 12 the receptionist comes in the locked front door like the previous 10 thousands times and switches all the lights and quickly disappears back to her post outside.

Now for the first time in my experience here the office is bathed in light during the lunch hour. The irony is that most days, people including moi, continue to work on by the flicker of their PC screen, and today it's bright as sunshine and not a sole in the office area.

C'mon who's going to miss food and cake right, work can wait.

I just hope we don't now become completely out of sync, as I may turn into a mushroom.

Cheers from the not so darkside,

GJ
