Real Work Conversations: Red Shirts

This one's actually from yesterday morning.

Boss: {Stands up and notices that we're both wearing red shirts and black slacks.} "Well, crap."

Me: "Let me guess. You woke up this morning and thought that this was going to be the sort of the day where you beamed down to the planet as part of the security detail."

Boss: "Pretty much."

Me: "Yeah, me too."

  2. Wow. I kind of love your boss. I'm on the job hunt right now, and I can only hope I get one that cool.
    Think you could put in a good word with the Dark Ones for me?

  3. Well, I'm in the wrong part of the country to be any direct help, but I'll leave a note for the Cultist and see if he's willing to sacrifice a Bumbler or something...

    Good luck, though.

Feel free to leave comments; it lets me know that people are actually reading my blog. Interesting tangents and topic drift just add flavor. Linking to your own stuff is fine, as long as it's at least loosely relevant. Be civil, and have fun!
