retaliation

remember this?

well, on my last day of work, we plastered david hasselhoff all over their cubicles in retaliation. 

it was funny...

i hope their memories of me are sweet. 

note: these were taken with the husband's iphone with the new panoramic feature...might be kind of hard to tell on the blog in these pictures.

nonetheless, all say "oooooohhhhh."

thought this would be special for someone as well.

hope you had a jolly day. 

such funny guys

 

 so, the last couple weeks at work have included "hasselhoffer's"

the hasselhoffee is the person who finds their screensavers changed to something like the above.  other fellow workers have found david in a much more scandalous outfit...with kittens.  

which is super weird.  

i need to retaliate at some point...any ideas?

Grace

i do really like that name...but the husband doesn't care for it much.  maybe after this story he will...who knows.

so I hear that sometimes in pregnancy you get clumsy.  i've noticed it here and there, but i am still wearing heels which i realize is asking for trouble.  

regardless of which, i managed to fall, whilst sitting upon my chair.

about a 18 months ago i decided that i wanted to try sitting upon an exercise ball at work.  it was great, i could feel my inner core getting stronger. 

to my dismay...it popped while a fellow employee was on it.  i didn't even get to witness it. 

i know that sounds mean, but really, who wouldn't want to see it?

being the compassionate person i am, i bought a frame from a thrift shop and put a portion on my ball in it for him to have for Christmas. 

 

he loved it.  in the end, he hung up the frame for all to see at work.

as a direct result i had to purchase a new ball, which apparently is much smaller than the last.  i can't quite reach my desk comfortably to work.  using my creativeness i put my woodblock (footstool for my feet to rest on, which is completely a different story.) under the ball, thus balancing myself and feeling like i work my core even more.  

a few months ago, my boss came in and saw this with a look of shock.  i couldn't understand what the big deal was, until . .. i took a picture

 

 

so now that you know the history. 

lets just say, that this is the second time in the last month i have fallen from my balancing act.  once without anyone in the room. the next time (today) was in front of a guy here at work.  the look of concern on his face was priceless.  it shocked me more to see that look instead of a face that was bursting to laugh out loud. 

after he realized i was okay, he let out a little laugh, but i guess to him, watching a 7 month pregnant girl roll on the floor wouldn't be super funny.  

but, i am still laughing in my office all by myself.

like this.

Baahahahahh buahaha. haha.  snicker snicker.  

(me smiling to myself at random)

To the half dressed black man on the othe line.

As some of you may know, I sell appraisal software.

I spend about 30 minutes with a customer training them how to use the software then turn them loose with some follow-up later. 

and much to my dismay, somehow I am a pretty good salesperson. . .let's get this out now. . . i don't like talking to people all that much really, well complete strangers anyway.

but today, I was having some issues with my brother from another mother's computer.

we do online meetings and i was trying to set some programs up for him and whilst minimizing the programs on h is computer somehow managed to click just the right button so his web cam CAME UP WITH HIM SITTING WITH NO SHIRT.

Luckily, he was a good looking. . .  

now, appraisers have a great job, they can work from anywhere as long as they have their computer, phone and internet, i once trained a guy who did most of his work from various Starbucks.

But for some reason, it never crossed my mind that across the states, I could be talking to an appraiser with no shirt on and who knows if he was wearing pants! 

so, lesson learned is this.

Always wear your clothing if doing an online meeting, just in case the trainer accidentally hits your web cam button.

another side note. he had the inside picture of a car, a very nice one I might add. so everybody around kept asking what it was...i finally noticed the RR symbol and asked just in case.

Rolls-Royce of course

so yes, some appraisers have a pretty sweet gig.
