Note to my co-worker on the phone right now

[Jersey Nick]

Dear Co-worker on the other side of my cube wall:

I really don't need to hear about your daughter's diverticulitis and ovarian cysts right after I eat breakfast.

I hate cubes.

That's all.

FYP (My first ever, I think)

Almost as disturbing as your old TC avatar, except your avatar was funny.

I worked for a now defunct web startup at the tail end of the internet boom. Our webmaster was a very nice, almost painfully shy, guy in the cube next to me. Once a day for my first month there--we started on the same day--he would make a telephone call and say, "Hi, this is ______, and I'm calling to try to schedule my colonoscopy."

Good times.

So he was calling all over town getting colonoscopies on a regular basis? Weird guy. /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Happy Birthday, Jake.

Thank you for putting in perspective, Sfer. I just spit coffee out of my nose.
