CubicleDweller - > Diary of a Corporate Slave -> Cubicle does not start with "P"
Cubicle does not start with "P"

This morning as I sat down and turned my computer on,  almost immediately a smell invaded my nostrils and made my stomach turn.  I thought to myself, "What is that?!"

Loudly I said, "Something is stinky"

My boss replied, "Sorry."

I joked, "Listen, I know you like to party like a Rock Star on the weekends but that doesn't mean you can ignore your personal hygiene."

I think someone urinated in my cubicle. There is a horrible smell that only I seem to be able to smell. I made my boss sit here and he can't smell anything, but it smells like one of those nasty bathrooms on Route 66.

I have images of the janitors partying after hours. Gross.

Oh gawd I hope it's not coming from my keyboard ... ew ew ew!  I'm going to have to wipe this whole place down with sani wipes now.

My friend had an issue with a fellow co-worker who was coming before/after hours and peeing on other people's spaces. At first they suspected the janitor because of his access of the building before/after hours but it ended up being somebody they worked with. Crazy hu?

That is so weird. You'd think people could keep some things to themselves!

They fired this guy and I think filed some sort of charges against him but I'm not sure. He worked at a city college. Those teachers are freaks I tell yah.

just kidding....

Route 66 restrooms?  My gawd how awful.  Few and far between but still awful.  When I was a kid, the worst place to go (or be) was under the bleachers at the ball park.  Yucko. Not a very good view either.   Heloise would recommend vinegar.  I'm not sure what to do with it.  Vinegar has had many uses over they years as some of you older women might know.  But just sitting it around or washing everything down seems to be her usual recommendation.

Twinkie, I laughed at that ... teachers are freakin nutty, or are driven completely nutty. 

Grampsdon, I remember the under the bleachers at the ball park smell ... used to watch the Bakersfield Dodgers with my Uncle, sometimes I'd get bored and run off to play.  Hmm vinegar, yes, it is a wonder cure.  You can mix it with alcohol and spray it on aching joints to help relieve the pain.

After I sprayed my keyboard down the smell disappeared ... I scrubbed my hands thoroughly with scalding hot water.
