Endless Wonder

the moanings and groanings of a man at work, bored and depressed. Watch as my life falls apart and gets put back together.

Lions, and Phone Calls, and Bears- Oh My!

Well, there are a number of interesting things that have happened at work so far. I overheard a chat between BIG BOSS 2 and one of the other higher-ups about this rumor going around the area. Supposedly there is a mountain lion on the hill where we work. I think it's funny (as do some others) that someone saw the mountain lion... AT NIGHT! I could believe it when they were finding things like broken chairs and such (yeah right). I don't know, I'm still kinda freaked out, but in a total state of disbelief also. I just hope I don't find out the truth the hard way.

Funny story. I went to medical today because I think my ear infection is coming back. So I'm there and they make me an appointment because they have no doctor and while I'm waiting for them to print my schedule and the phone rings. Now here comes the funny part. The attendee answers the phone as such:

ATTENDEE: Hello (medical) this (attendee) speaking, how the hell can I...

After he's realized what he did he immediately hangs up and drops the phone. The entire room bursts into laughter and the phone rings again. After everyone calms down they answer the phone again, finding out that it was my BIG BOSS on the other end. Oh the hilartity.

I really can't think of anything for Bears, except maybe that when I ran into the BIG BOSS later he hit me on the back as straight men are prone to do as a greeting. the man is huge. It wasn't painful, but it wasn't comfortable either.

The clock at work hates me

So I was at work today and before lunch I noticed that the clock was 5 minutes slow. So I set the clock to the right time and I go to lunch. when I get back to the office, the clock is 5 minutes fast! Ok, now I'm thinking that someone is playing bad joke on me or the clock really just hates me. Seeing as how I was the first person back to the office (and everyone else is too lazy to play a joke, I can only assume that the clock does infact hate me. So now I'm looking for ways to exorcise the demons out of the clock.
