bobcatmoranMuch drama today at work over the possible impending government shutdown and the mandatory furlough without pay that would result in for everyone in the office who works for the feds.
Also, the following conversation between one of the heads of the program and myself:
Her, coming up to me completely out of the blue: Hey! Are you any good at texting?
Me: Um, like on phones?wait, I thought we weren't supposed to be texting at work?
Her: Yeah. I got a message with some weird punctuation in it. It's two dots, followed by a "p".
Me: That's a smiley. It's the eyes and a mouth with its tongue sticking out, if you turn it sideways.
Her: (makes an about face and heads into the state office, declaring in an insulted tone…) He's sticking his tongue out at me!
