Recipe for a fun day at work
1. Start with not getting more than about 4 hours of sleep the night before. Semi-consciousness opens the mind to new possibilities.
2. 3 cups of stomach problems that send you to the bathroom every 30 minutes make the day more interesting!
3. A dash of slipping in the break room, landing your weight almost entirely on your right knee. This is gravity showing you it loves you.
4. Add a heaping spoonful of more to do than you can reasonably complete keeps you busy and on your toes, and none of it taking a clear priority offers you a chance to take a gamble and exercise decision-making skills.
5. Make sure half of these assignments were given to you by people who don’t care about everything else you have to do, because theirs is clearly most important. This provides you with a valuable opportunity to experience constructive criticism.
Simmer and stew until you want to either crawl under a rock or commit omnicide, then share with the world via livejournal.
