A mystery is solved
Apr. 24th, 2013 05:14 pmA while ago someone came into my office and said "ah! We shall be sharing soon, yes?", and when I looked baffled said that "they" had decided that he was to move into the spare desk in my office. Then a week or so later I said to him "so, when do I get the pleasure of your company" BUT IT WASN'T HIM. It was an entirely different man, apparently, and I had to pretend that someone had specifically told me that he was changing offices, but it must have been someone else. And all the men look quite similar to me, with similar accents and early on I really didn't know who anyone was. So I was rather embarrassed. Then I wondered if it had been some sort of joke I'd fallen for and the joker didn't know how to tell me it was a joke because I'd bought it so hard. But just now a man came in to "sort out the phones I don't need" and it is the original guy! Who, actually, looks nothing like the guy I asked about the pleasure of his company, but they are both white men. I get the male stagiares all confused too, with their cool haircuts, and being slim and white and young and thrustingly enthusiastic. Anyway, so now I know who's moving into my office, and maybe that will inspire me to tidy my desk and do some actual work. Though my screen won't be visible, so maybe I will just write more posts here because typing always sounds more productive than cliking on links and occasionally sniggering.
