Confessions of a Desensitized Secretary- November 14, 2014
And so the saga continues. The lack of common sense that people possess in this world not only amazes me but it also disappoints me. All was quiet on Friday afternoon. The doctors left, the door to the office was locked and I was finally catching up on work after a long week. Sounds picture perfect right?
Guess again suckers! In the midst of this serenity was a not so bright Looney Tune trying to get into the office. Just when you think the world had enough stupidity, this happens.
Now let me level with you and talk based on assumptions only. If I went to an office and the door was locked, the common sensical part of me would leave it at that and call the office on Monday. The illogical, crazy part of me would maneuver the doorknob for 15 minutes hoping the door would miraculously open with an office at my service. This is exactly what Looney Tunes decided to do.
My life is pretty simple. I work hard and enjoy the little things in life including Friday nights. Fridays, in most cases, usually means the hellhole I call work doesn’t make an appearance until Monday.
When Looney Tunes spends 15 minutes of a fleeting Friday night trying to get into an office that is closed, pieces of my soul die. One part feels for the Looney Tunes who has no brains and the other wonders when my life went oh so wrong.
You see folks? There’s a reason why I exist in a world of unicorns and partial isolation. The Looney Tunes just don’t live up to that kind of excitement.
I can only imagine what next week will bring. God forbid the Looney Tunes stay away. That would be asking for too much.
