My Very Own Office Space...

I am on day two of a temp job... the standard desk monkey. Just had a very 'Office Space' moment. The printer stopped after printing page one of a document. I looked at it. The little screen blinked, 'LOAD LETTER', and I knowingly complied. Slid the tray back in, waited. Waited. Waited. No printing noises. Looked again at the little screen. Blinking, there, my very own printer-based insanity right out of the movies, 'PC LOAD LETTER'. I was baffled. Confounded. 'I just loaded letter,' I thought, 'so what did it want? What in the hell does PC LOAD LETTER mean?!' It was so funny I almost laughed aloud. But then I got to thinking. Maybe both trays contain letter? Maybe one being legal just didn't happen anymore, and truthfully, legal paper is annoying and silly and I wish it would vanish back into the depths of hell from whence it came. So I checked the other tray. Letter. Loaded letter. Slid the tray back in. Huzzah! The little printer sprang to life, lovingly printing my document with its little whirs and clicks. God bless you little printer.

I've said it once and I'll say it again, that movie is funny because its true, and anyone who has worked in an office has to agree.

Oh, AND my coworker has a bright red Swingline stapler. She bought it because everyone kept stealing her staplers, and now she will know because hers is the only red one. Perfection.
