Okay, this whole “feel free to bring your dog to the office with you” policy at work is quite endearing really, but the seventh floor smells like shit today. Literally. It’s permeating. Nobody can find the actual pile-o-shit, but it’s definately there somewhere. ...

This is D – the mail lady at work. She’s a hoot. Loved her shirt. In case you can’t read it, it says: FINISH YOUR BEERS (There are sober people in China) ...

Most of the office doesn’t know it’s going on. They won’t tell us what hapenned until later in the day. I’m expecting an ...
