So much effort, so little reward


Here's an update on my colleagues.

Before I get to that, I need to say the following: If my colleagues were to find these rather unfavourable descriptions of them, I would not be happy. However, I would not be devastated beyond belief… mainly because I suspect my colleagues would get a little pissed off and hurt at these descriptions but would, in all likelihood, let it go after I apologised to them for hurting their feelings, if they so desired. It is ridiculous to think that they might haul me into a disciplinary inquiry or a grievance process for publishing silly stuff about ANONYMOUS peoples' appearances on an ANONYMOUS blog - information that would be laughed out of court/hearings in an logical place. What I do is far worse than, say, some people who may write just one post about how mean some anonymous people are to EACH OTHER in a workplace. But I suspect that my colleagues are logical and sensible people, who can accept an apology for a slight, and continue on with their lives.

RIGHT!

:-)

Two of my colleagues are drunk. Apparently they had late nights last night and are still in the tipsy phase, rather than the hungover one. They are chipper, but I suspect they are suffering deep down. The good news is that everyone knows, including the bosses, and are ok with it. Hey, when you're drunk at work, you put in extra effort to pretend you aren't…could be their most productive day yet.

My other colleague's hair remains blonde-orange, as she ponders what to do with it. In a frightening turn of events, word has it that she actually is fond of her crowning glory's current appearance.

Another colleague is attending a wedding this weekend, and is schlepping 300 meatballs via car this evening, for the event. Apparently they have also been told they can bring their own cooler bags and alcohol to the event. For this reason, colleague's husband has decided he will wear jeans to the event.

That's it for now.

If anyone feels these comments are worth trying to destroy my life over, well, I would just ask you to think about it properly, and interrogate why you feel this is worth so much time and effort. Get a hobby - it will fulfill you more in the long run.

    Keep the Faith and fight the Power (in this case The Man).

    Honestly, some people just need to either a) get laid or b) get a freaking hobby and stop getting up in everyone else's business!

    Disciplinary action? Who would be so pathetic as to do that? It's not like this here blog impacts your ability to do your work. You are capable and do your job well!

    In any case, I find your comments VERY amusing. I find it rather startling that your colleague likes her crowning glory! During my wayward youth I peroxided the under section of my hair – I was experimenting with an Xtina type look (not great). And the peroxide burnt and blistered my head, so she must be suffering and has decided that she does not want to take anymore peroxide to her scalp – that can be the only explanation.

    Also, I find this meatball fest of a wedding VERY interesting. My sister is planning her wedding - do you think I should suggest this style of shindig to her? She could save on a DJ because we could just ask everyone to tune into 5FM and pump it from their cars.

    Totally Vimbai and Benny. May people like you two lead companies in the future.

    Benny, I wonder if her scalp is blistery, and that's the reason she's resisting fixing it up? She genuinely seems to like it, worryingly enough. I kinda wish I'd messed more with my hair in my youth - sounds like fun...albeit painful fun.

    As for your sister's wedding...NOW YOU'RE THINKING!!! Why fork out for a band when you've got sub-woofers and a few bakkies that can create the atmosphere for you? Please invite me to the reception.
