Oh no you didint jus' move up in my office!

Now, I don’t mean to be rude. I am sure she is nice. But someone’s head down at HR better roll. I have put in three and a half mostly thankless years, and now, with just three and a half short weeks left, on my fairwell tour of the office, I get stuck with a friggin intern in my office. For three and a half years I shared a shitty space with another person. Then when we hired my replacement a month ago, I moved into the lone vacant office space in the building. Sure, it was inconveniently located right next door to my previous boss, but it was helpful to be near the guy I was supposed to be training to take my place. And the office is great, while it may not actually be on the receiving end of any air conditioning, I have a fan and a big window. A window! It took three and a half years to be able to see daylight from my desk. And now they are putting a fucking intern in my office? Is postal too cliché? Cuz homeboy is feeling very Bill Foster (Michale Douglas) in Falling Down right now. Fuck fuck fuck! Now I can’t be all blasé about my blogging, my surfing, my emailing, or my farting. How in the hell am I supposed to coast thru the last 3 and a half weeks of my job sharing an office the size of my sophomore year single dorm room?

Listen intern, it’s nothing personal. I am sure you had a very nice education and are probably a real friggin’ whipper snapper. But ya know what? F-you and your need for desk space. I am pissed.

This is meant to be ironic, because you see, my shitty office has no human resources, or anyone really that I could even complain to short of the owner. And you think he gives a shit? Small businesses suck for workers. That’s it, I am starting a union. F this place.

Oh how I miss the Dupre singles...

Is there enough room in your Dupre single to turn your desk or monitor so the whippersnapper can't see what's happening on your monitor? And then you can just sit there click-clacking away on your keyboard with a serious look on your face, and he won't know what's up?

Did I actually just learn how to post comments on your blog? This shouldn't be so hard. nmegfa! come on, blogspot.

I really like the new direction here on DC Domestique.

I can relate to your lack of space. My replacement is all up in my grill right now. She's getting full access to the world of Slurry Beta and it isn't pretty. It's like a five-act drama each day. Laughter, tears, danger, triumph.

In other news, I'm a very hungover man today and am using far too many f-words as adjectives.
