[quote=mredskins;802106]The lady in my office who I mentioned before that doesn't know jack about Excel. She tripped coming out of her cube this morning and when she tired to get up she ripped the loudest fart that I have heard in a long time.

Seriously people where turning blue trying to hold in the laughter.

Made my morning.[/quote]

I love this.

There's a guy in our office who must have some sort of GI problem because I hear him audibly fart just about any time I'm around him for more than 30 minutes at a time. It never stinks though.

It's like he's sucking plain air into his ass and blasting it out for kicks.

I started with my company 3.5 years ago and they've been talking about moving into a new building the entire time and today it's finally happening. Should be pretty interesting.

I went in yesterday for a few hours to set up my desk and catch up on some stuff (we had to be out by noon on Friday for the movers, which made for an epic happy hour). The new place is a lot nicer than where we were IMO, but I guarantee I'm going to have to listen to people bitching for various reasons for the new few months or so since some people really can't handle change.

I guess people will find out about my workplace when the book comes out tomorrow

Starting mid June I will temporarily be working from an apartment in Norther Virginia for 3 months and if all goes well I will be working out of an apartment in Doha Qatar for 2 to 3 years. I will finally be free from The Office!

Re: The Workplace
 

Wow, that's huge. You might get to see Qatar for a few years as they prepare for the 2022 World Cup.

Is this move tied to your career or that of your fiancee/wife...or both your careers?

It's tied to my wife's. She is in the final stages of landing a job with Al-Jazeera English. I'm excited about working from anywhere in the world and make my own work schedule.

Re: The Workplace
 

That's fantastic. Al Jazeera English is very underrated in my opinion. I'd love to spend a few years working abroad
