CubicleDweller - > Diary of a Corporate Slave -> The Devil's Advocate
The Devil's Advocate

It's no secret, but if you look close enough you'll see my little horns holding up my broken halo ...

Just another day at the office, right?  With the weather so moody I'm feeling a bit impish, thank god it's casual Friday, but again, even though I'm wearing comfy jeans and a fuzzy sweater, I'd much rather be in my pj's and slippers.  Knowing I'd need a little help getting through another doldrum day I ground some good coffee beans before I left for work and made a good pot of coffee once I arrived.

The morning has been rather uneventful, a little forgery, a little online window shopping, and then Sweet Caroline began singing Christmas carols and exclaiming that she couldn't hear them from so and so's desk, and constantly asking if the Stealth Elf was okay each time she made any remark too loudly while on the phone.

I guess all these little things led to her being my target of the morning ...

She began neurotically cleaning the cube next to me so my already annoyed sinuses were being invaded with a strong lemon fresh scent, which she loudly exclaimed that she enjoyed the smell of.  Well at least that makes one of us.

With a new staff member arriving on Monday she checked the drawers of the currently unoccupied cube and discovered a few belongings in the drawers - not to mention Chatty and the Gerbil's boxes on the top of the desk.  Assuming all the items belonged to them, she wandered off to find our head secretary to see where she could put them since Chatty and the Gerbil weren't in the office. 

Knowing perfectly well that the items in the drawers were mine, I quickly removed them and slid them under my desk while she was off sniffing cleaner.    When she returned she exclaimed to the head secretary, "I SWEAR there was stuff in here!  There was a red bag with Christmas stuff in it!  I know there was!  Oh my god, someone is making me think I'm crazy!"
