Invasion
So I'm sitting at work, minding my own business, not actually doing any work and what to I see twitching it's antenna at me? A little baby roach. The kind that grows into a big giant tree roach. As subtly as I can I reach under my desk and take of my shoe. As I am trying to smash it to death it escapes into a holder for note paper. Eventually I get it out and that is the end of him. However, my black peep-toe heels have roach guts all over the bottom. I go out and look in the shelves under my supervisors desk, who isn't in yet, find a napkin and when I stand up there is a big giant roach!!!
I let a surprised yelp and long story short we get the guy in charge of the general office stuff take care of it. He orders supplies, files something very specific about the office and kills roaches. I'm pretty sure that is his job description.
Everyone says roaches have always been a problem here. What the hell are tree roaches doing on the 66th floor?! We occasionally get one in our house, when they wander in from outside, where there are lots of trees! This office building is crazy, I think there are maintinence guys completely devoted to animal removal. Unless one of the floors is a zoo there is something seriously wrong with down town Houston. My supervisor saw guys on the elevators who had just come from catching bats, maybe they were eating all the roaches.
Now I feel crawly all over because there never is just one baby roach.
Gross.
