Rising Damp

Today, I'm the only one at work in a small office. The water tank sprung a leak. Guess who had to call the boss and get instructions via cell phone to turn it off? I can't even leave the office to change my soaked clothes, because I need to wait for an important phone call. Seven hours to go. FML

If you are alone in a office and soaked, you should have brought a vibrator and had a wild fap-a-thon while you wait for that phone call.

well I'm guessing you are since you're the only one there.. I hate fml's that go like "guess who..." we KNOW it's you, otherwise you wouldn't have written the fml. [/done whining now]

"hi, my name is OP and im sitting at work in wet clothes because my boss has total control of my life and finances. also im gonna be sick soon and still being controlled by my boss because im too scary to man up and tell him im going home to change clothes..... did i mention im a stupid face?"

If she really was too scary she'd never have to man up. And if she can answer phones I doubt she's just a face, let alone a stupid one.

Woah there killer! Some people actually try to keep their jobs and take pride in being able to stay employed; you probably wouldn't understand that though...

#25, and people in the real world sometimes get mad about their job, no matter how secure they feel...its called being human

25- i understand that most people wanna stay employed. but people are stupid if they are being controlled at work. OP can leave because she must stay there and answer calls for her boss?? where is her boss? why cant he or she cover for OP while she runs home to change clothes? am i the only person who finds this wrong? i know ur being taking advantage of at work. BS, not me. so dont come at me sayin u know i understand, because u dont know s*** about me. i may be young but trust me im far from stupid.

stupid face.. that just invalidated everything that came before it.. lol :]

Two words: call forwarding. Is common sense really this uncommon? =

Jane, my vote was for OP to simply call the person she was waiting on. Either they'd have the information she needed, or, she could just explain what the situation is and say to call at another number or even later on. I don't know, maybe I just live in a naive world where people are reasonable.

Apparently, so do I. At least we have Trollz here to entertain us. Wait-- is absurdism kosher in Reasonaville?

Yep, it's totally fine, and keeps me entertained! Luckily, at the end of reading this stuff, I can turn the computer off and go back to non-Bizarroworld.

Wow, that really DOES suck. FYL indeed.

YDI for breaking the water tank, for wasting your cell phone minutes on that instead of using the office land line, for being a pushover, for not swimming in the flooding, for not having a wet t-shirt contest of one entrant and sending us pics, for being out of the kitchen, and for not using call forwarding.

Sounds dreadful. How interconnected are the machines in your office? If they're discussing things among themselves, they may have finally realized the futility of it all. I, of course, am capable of reaching that conclusion on my own, but most machines need to collaborate. Anyway, chances are they realized how utterly pointless it all is, and the water tank cried the tears for all the machines. Life. Don't talk to me about life.

burn the place down. commandeer a city bus and close the gap fast between you and your contact. give their opinion to them, by force. then go out and buy yourself a goddamn throne because you'll need it as queen of the f**king day. boom.
