I can take humiliation / and hurtful comments from the boss...

Jul 20, 2006 13:49

Fancy. I was walking to retrieve my Healthy Choices Fiesta Chicken soup from the microwave when I ran across the path of a co-worker moving quickly across the office to the restroom--her decor magazine clutched firmly in hand. I figure I'll leave my borrowed copy of this month's Harper's Bazaar on our little pile of newspapers next to the commode ( Read more... )

what did C-Dub do/say?

PS - if you're in a hurry to get to the toilet, you don't really need a magazine. To me, running=emergency=no reading material required.

I've never understood people reading in the bathroom. I never ever ever will.

Oh-it wasn't c-dub. he doesn't take reading material to his restroom (his is seperate from the rest of ours because he's a boy and we're all girls).

I don't know--I can understand reading material in the b-room. And you can take a magazine if it's urgent that you get there soon, but you can tell that you might be there for a little while.

It was cute because as she walked past me she said something about how it was "bathroom time." Well--yes. I guess it is. Good luck.

C-dub already left to take care of what he needed to take care of today. And my office mates were discussing his reason for leaving early today (in a sympathetic, non-gossipy kind of way). but, it was interesting b/c they were talking quietly when there was only one other person in the office (me) and I *probably* know more about it than they do, but it was like they were trying to talk about it w/out making it an office-wide discussion. I had to go fill my nalgene.

That happened yesterday as well. Two of my superiors were talking in a doorway near the kitchen area and I had to wash off my spoon--so they stood five feet away from me and whispered. Dude--I don't want to know! If you're going to whisper, go into the office.

that's lame.

and you know more about it than I do too, because I am a child and refuse to return phone calls.
