Random Acts of Stupidity of Marilyn & Wilma

The names have been changed to protect the guilty. Marilyn and Wilma are co-workers of The Dog and Cat. The Cast of Characters are explained in Post #2 (March 06).
In case you're wondering - we don't make this stuff up - nor do we exaggerate it. We would never come up with this on our own! We can't laugh out loud at work, so we use this as a way to laugh and vent some of the frustrations.
Do you also have to live/work with stupidity such as this? Leave a comment and let us know!

Zip Your Pants, Pizza Guy!

My brothers came here (to this town) yesterday to work on a restaurant drive-thru window. We live in the same city, but since they were over here, we decided to meet at a local pizza place. Free lunch for me!

We went to the register to pay before we left.... and I hope the guy working the register wasn't involved in the food prep.... His shirt was sticking out through his fly.....

Wedding Bells are Ringing

Squirrel came in yesterday carrying a JC Penney bag. He stopped by Marilyn's desk to show her the engagement ring he bought for his girlfriend.

They must have gotten everything worked out.... there was a lot of tension when he had to take full custody of his children. They broke up, she moved out, then they got back together, but she didn't move back in.....

We hope whatever happens is best for the children.....

Cause of a Headache

Roseanne was in the office saying she could tell a co-worker had a bad headache yesterday from the look on his face. She went on to say it was probably caused by the change in "baromic" pressure.

....and we thought it was called barometric pressure.... you learn something new everyday.... :)

You Will Be Thinking About Me In Your Sleep

We have a new maintenance guy, we will name him MG2 until we get to know him better to see if there's a better name.

He has been calling Marilyn "Maryanne". She told him today that her name is Marilyn and to try to remember that. He replied that he's only been here 3 days so he is still learning but he would try hard to remember.

Then she said something to him about he'll be thinking about it so much that he will wake up in the middle of the night saying her name and his wife would nail him.

He laughed it off saying he wife wouldn't be happy if he did that.

A Stupid Question....

Someone came in today asking about services .... Marilyn asked him, "Are you living somewhere?"

He replied, "everyone lives somewhere unless they're dead."

We think she was trying to find out if he was homeless or not without asking outright.

Marilyn's Own Language

Some items were purchased to keep in the company vehicles last week. Marilyn took it upon herself to write the company name with a Sharpie on each one. She did this to .... "deteriorate the thievery of it."

But I Wanted Those Donuts

Jessica brought in donuts this morning to share with staff. The janitor saw them and hid them - she decided she wanted to keep them for herself.

Jessica found them and gave them away.

Pee-Wee's Big Adventure

...or we should say Limburger's....

Marilyn walked over to Limburger's office on Friday to tell him that she & Dog were leaving, which would leave him or CEO to set the alarm system.

She had just transferred a call to him from one of his employees in another city. When she got to his office, the door was locked. He has a piece of paper in the small window in his door so people can't look in as they walk through the hallway. Marilyn is tall enough to raise up just a bit to see in, which she did and motioned for him to open the door.

She said that he scooted his chair up under the desk and "adjusted himself" before coming to unlock the door. While in his office she could easily see the signs of what she had interrupted... He was still standing at attention.....

We're trying to relay the story.... without expicit details... so please read between the lines....

Marilyn Faints at the Sight of ....

... stretchmarks....

She told us about an instance where she was visiting a friend in the hospital (just had a baby?) and the friend pulled up her gown and showed Marilyn her stretchmarks... Marilyn started feeling woozy and had to leave.... She said she bent over in the elevator and thought she was going to pass out.

There was a second incident at the office with someone pulling up their shirt to show her something....
