Don't You Wish Your Workmates Were Cool Like Mine?

Over the last two working weeks, I have received for free the following CDs from one super-generous and ridiculously overeducated (and extremely funny, let it be noted) workmate: this, this, this, this, and this.

What a top bloke.


It's a strange place to work: In place of a hazing ceremony, one new staffer was required to watch this as a way of assimilating the office culture.

There are times when I'm glad I work alone.

I did once have to ban Travis 'Why does it always rain on me' from an office I worked in.

One chap decided he'd be a rebel and flaunt the ban so I picked up a scissors, went over to his desk and snipped his speaker cables.

He went mental. hahaha.

excellent, will this new staffer have to move onto Britney Spears in Crossroads? is it all so he/she can work on Oprah and Rosie? Not unlike the auld telecommnutin' I'm hear writing and enjoying the office experience vicariously by reading your blog. Going to be on Phantom Fm at 11am tomorrow talking about superheroes and various madness, i'll put up more media whoring info on the blog later. It's Sinead Gleeson standing in for Edel Coffey, have you heard of them? Get the feeling all Irish bloggers all live in a big house together like The Monkees....

We've ALL heard of Sinead, thanks, Lorcy. Sure, wasn't Twenty on the same program yesterday talking about his book deal!

We'll be listening in!

btw, Lorcy, Yes. Cross Roads arrived on Monday and will be required watching: It comes packed with extras such as Britney Karaoke and Make Your Own Britney T-shirts, so you probably won't recognize us next time you call in.
