I work in an office environment. I started this new job in November 2008. It doesn’t matter what I do…okay, I am the assistant to the Dean…you happy?
One day I asked a co-worker in our office…”Where is Mary’s office?” I needed to talk to Mary in person. My co-worker, let’s call her Cheryl, said…”:Downstairs. I asked “where downstairs, does she have an office number?” Cheryl replied, “I don’t know for sure where her office is downstairs, I have never been to her office.” Now that might not seem odd to some, but Cheryl has been working here for 2 1/2 years. And Mary has been here for 3 years. I looked at Cheryl with this dumbfounded look on my face. You have never been to Mary’s office, one floor down from our office. And the two of you have both been working here for at least two years. Hmmm…very odd.
My advice to Cheryl is…Take a walk, why don’t you! Sheesh!
P.S. I have been to Mary’s office several times already and I have been working here only three months.
Yeah…no wonder we are the fatest nation in the world.
Someone asked Mitch where one of his coworkers sat and how he could find his desk. And Mitch told him that it would be a 15+ hour flight since said coworker is in India! OOps…it was funny, sometimes how they forget the people they talk to every day are half a world away.
But one floor? Walk!
