Working at the Office

Jeff would like to give the impression that he works at the kind of office that would tolerate the kind of behavior that he posted yesterday. Alas, his office is in the basement of a building with serious drainage issues. The flourescent lights flicker when trucks drive by on the street outside. And his only real contact with co-workers is when he hears them screaming for the beatings to stop and promising to be more diligent workers.

Jeff once tried to do the parkour thing over his office cubicles, but discovered a little late that the ceiling only cleared the cubicle wall by a foot and a half. His shoes made it into the next cube, but that was about all of him that did.

Now, Jeff has actually attacked his computer in a fashion similar to the fellow in his first office post. Lucky for the office they had yet to feel they could trust Jeff with real machinery and had only given him the computer and monitor made out of cardboard used for display models. Jeff viciously attacked his computer when the screen wouldn’t shut down from Solitaire and the boss was coming. Jeff thought that having his foot in the screen would get him in less trouble than being caught playing games. As it turns out he was right. Later that same day he was given a real computer, a C64.

Jeff still works in that sad little office, and still uses his Commodore. But he only uses it for work purposes. When it’s time to post to the Pumpkin he uses his boss’s Alienware machine, even though it means sitting in the automatic whipping chair to do so.

Tune in tomorrow, when Pyrophage attempts to post on time and Jeff posts on time as well.
