a toddler wandered into my office a little while ago. i recognized her as our production manager's daughter, but mom was nowhere in sight. i returned said child to her rightful owner, even though she was pretty darn cute and i would have liked to keep her.
then i went outside for some air. work has been crazy lately. while i was out there, two guys from another floor carried an unconscious woman out of the building. she woke up as soon as they got outside, and started yelling at them to put her down. they did, and then she vomited.
a few minutes later, the afternoon security guard arrived, with his belt unbuckled and his pants undone. i feel very safe.

CRAP! i hope they have to wipe it off their childrens asses for the next 10 years. what a waste of time, where is the payoff? came close to getting married once, she called it off three weeks before the wedding, after the bridal shower. now that was close. i probably would have had two point five kids by now. what a disaster that would have been. i bet i would have moved near a sporting goods store. one that sells shot guns.

She didn't understand that he was ONLY drunk just that ONE time. He went on to say that he was abused as a child but since he became a "believer" he is now saved. Good for him, but aside from this, we've found stray cats in the ladies room that he lets in overnight and another co-worker walked in one morning to find him at the top of a staircase, arms outstretched, head tilted back, eyes closed, praying. The last time I saw him he had one of those robotic birds in a cage that you can train to talk to you. He was reading the manual on how to train it so it would talk to him overnight. That was probably the funniest thing I've seen him do. Sometimes you gotta warch them security guards...
