Holy crap. Nice cover...I would have turned bright red and stammered.

Hahahaha! Ditto on what Molly said, or I would have totally turned and run away in horror.

Woah... that's messed up...

your co-workers are a bit slow but nice cover. I'm sure he's probably like Michael off The Office and doesn't even know what you guys were talking about...

I wonder how much of the conversation he got...

hmm... Do update us!

Hilarious!!!

Very well-played. If anybody gets fired, it's your co-worker.

Too damned funny, and horrifing, but funny.

I once did something similar. My eighth grade Algerbra teacher left the class, and we started acting a fool. I had my back to the entry way, and happened to say something bad about her, and sure enough, as I turned around, there she was. She'd heard every word. I couldn't play it off like you though. Smooth. Very Smooth.

I didn't think things like that happened in real life! How horrifying.

If anyone gets fired I bet it would be your co-worker. Your boss HAS to admire how cool you were in the face of that!

If you get fired, I think you should rename this blog "The Company Bonehead".

Sounds like you two just got a bit of the upper hand in how your boss will treat you from now on, seriously.

Airam said...

Wow your co-worker is slow. Perhaps this is why she was assigned the very hard task of paper clipping.

Drama Queen said...

Welcome back!

Getting emails from trolls. . .haha me too but don’t let the bastards grind you down.

And getting flack not linking or leaving comments and other people’s sites. Hilarious. Do these people actually have a life?

Bloggers are strange. Present company accepted.

I literally gasped out loud when I got to the "hello". Nice save. Glad to have you back. Hope the trolls dissipate.

funky monkey said...

that's great. Nice cover. Getting fired would have sucked after working until 8

I'm beginning to wonder if these things happen ad-hoc or if you anticipate a good story arising and somehow the universe answers. Either way I give it a ten on the blogability scale.

Love, love, love your blog.
I'd write my own about my moronic co-workers too but just a little afraid they'd find out somehow. Keep up the funny stuff.

There are a lot of sites out there showing book video. BookVideoTV, BookTelevision and of course CSPAN, but I like how BN.com and Reader's Entertainment TV have specific genre channels and original shows. There's just more to see and I can be specific in what genre I'm interested in. Anyone else watch online tv?
Reader's Entertainment
