Work Crazies

*general office chatter, something about Real World*

Me: (ignoring ignoring ignoring ignoring ignoring ignoring ignoring ignoring ignoring ignoring ignoring ignoring ignoring ignoring ignoring ignoring ignoring ignoring ignoring)

Crazy Co-Worker #1: (very interested) Wait! What show are you talking about??

Crazy Co-Worker #2: Real World. Did you see it last night?

Crazy Co-Worker #1: Oh. No, I don't have a TV. I don't get that luxury.

Me: (then why the fuck were you asking about a TV show you crazy freak you just like the way your mouth feels when it's talking freak freak freak)


Later, as we all sit and do our work quietly:

Crazy Co-Worker #1: Have all the districts been logged for yesterday?

Me: Sara's working on them. I don't know how far she's gotten. (*indicates Sara, who sits at the desk not six feet in front of me with a pile of logs in her lap*)

Crazy Co-Worker #1: Well, which ones are done?

Me: I don't know. Sara might know. (*indicates Sara again*)

Crazy Co-Worker #1: You know what we should do? (*pause*)

Me: What's that?

Crazy Co-Worker #1: We should make up some sort of check-off list so that everyone can tell which districts are logged for which days. That way we'd all know.

Me: Or, you could just ask Sara.

Crazy Co-Worker #1: (*finally glances in Sara's direction*) Hmm...Do we have Excel on these computers? I want to make a check-off list.

Me: (*ignoring you ignoring you ignoring you ignoring you ignoring you ignoring you*)

Crazy Co-Worker #1: (*wandering away*) That way we'd all know...
