Work Safari
Has anyone ever told you that you are the greatest coworker? If so, you've been lied to. I'm sure that you're a nice person and all, but unless you are one of the nine people I work with, your title no longer stands.
I came back from a pleasant dental appointment today to find 100 feet of evenly spaced plastic bugs leading me to my cubicle. Upon sight of the first one, I thought, "Yikes! I hope that thing isn't alive." Upon determining its plastic consistency, and soon thereafter seeing a long trail of its friends, I thought, "I hope this isn't about me." It was and I was shocked to see the thoroughness of the decoration.
My coworkers have planned the prank for weeks – and it really paid off. There were dozens of hidden critters, stuffed animals, multiple yards of draped camouflage netting, burlap wall coverings, and even ambient jungle sounds. There are many surprises yet to be found in the mass – I was even greeted by a critter in my glove as I left for the evening.
I must say thank you to my team for making me feel so very appreciated. This prank will go down in the annals of creative going away pranks. Thanks!
I especially liked seeing the Chick-fil-a! That is one of the things I’ve missed being over here in London. I’m pretty sure there’s not a store in Sierra Leone. Enjoy it while you can.
Fun times! Chick-fil-a…I used to love their chicken!
