Guest guest Posted January 31, 2004 Report Share Posted January 31, 2004 Oh my god, did you really throw the whole tray in the rubbish? Wow, I think I would only have the guts to do that if I also had your martial arts training. Lol. Ohh, and Pam, WAY TO GO on the donuts. Donuts are a huge problem, if I had a time machine, I would go back and ummmm... well, I guess I wouldn't really shoot the inventor... I know, I'd talk and talk and talk until he forgot his great new idea! Phoenix > <<Earlier, my colleague walked by and > actually shoved the aforementioned box of donut holes in my face and > practically begged me to eat some.>> > > People at work used to do that to me. It's ironical, but they seemed to stop it after the first two or three times I took their goody tray and dumped it into the trash. Now when co-workers have a bunch of treats, they hide them from me. Works great!

Guest guest Posted January 31, 2004 Report Share Posted January 31, 2004 You know, after I posted that I realized the trash thing probably wouldn't go over well in a civilized office environment. I work in more of a circus atmosphere where it takes something wild to get anybody's attention. :-) Re: donut holes, who needs em? Oh my god, did you really throw the whole tray in the rubbish?

Guest guest Posted January 31, 2004 Report Share Posted January 31, 2004 Well, I wouldn't call my office civilized, but I would have been afraid to try to take those donut holes away from my coworkers! They had this crazy look in their eyes as they attacked those donut holes. Maybe after I build these muscles up a bit more, I'll have the cojones to take on a pack of rabid sugar-craving marketing managers. Of course, as soon as they were done scarfing, they started whining about how they were going to gain a hundred pounds now and blah blah blah donuts are evil. I was doing the same thing around the holidays with the jelly beans, so I tried not to judge.

Guest guest Posted February 1, 2004 Report Share Posted February 1, 2004 I was on the floor rolling when I read that... Perhaps a little less extreme route would be to take only one and promptly dump it in the trash. I can't wait to try that... > You know, after I posted that I realized the trash thing probably wouldn't go over well in a civilized office environment.
