Identity crisis
One of the guys in my department sent out a group email this afternoon to the IT staff. He started it with, "Hi Gents..."
Me: Hey, J, I didn't know I was a 'Gents'.
J: Oops. I'm not used to there being a girl in the group.
T: Um, J, that email group also goes to finance and most of them are women.
J: Oh!! Really? I didn't know....
Me: Yep, lucky you didn't say anything incriminating. By the way, do I need to start wearing skirts, so nobody confuses me for 'Gents'?
I was amused earlier on in the day when I noticed most of the IT guys were wearing trousers with blue striped shirts....till I realised I was wearing the same thing.
And, no Ian, we weren't selling ice cream, but we would have made a good barbershop quartet.
Compliments of Ian...hahaha!

That photo of you at work just arrived. I've emailed it to you
"Help me, Eveie, help help me Evie! Help me Eveie, help help me Eveie!"
"Eve-ry body's gone Surfin'... Surfin' USA..."
"E-E-E E-E-vie G..."
:-(
I was missin' the bangs...where'd they go?
LOL!!! How funny!!
Ms Yellow hair delight?
As I was reading this I started chuckling. And then I read the comments... and forgot what I was going to comment about because suddenly "Help me Rhonda" got stuck in my head.
Grr.
Yawn, dude. Enough with the sensible Eve spending time working milarky and more of the old Eve spending work time blogging ;)
I just bought 4 packets of biscuits from the Reject Shop for $3.50. They are called Bono - um - presumably because you too can have one haha.
Dude, the writing isn't even in English. It could be Italian. Let me read the label... oh, the address of manufacture is in Brasil, so it must be Portugese. Haha I have customer complaints numbers in Brasil, Paraguay, Argentina, Bolivia and Uraguay. Local brand, then :)
Ok, let's see what they taste like...
Um.
Right.
Now I see why they're $3.50 for 4 packets...
Ok, and now I feel sick... :(
At first I thought you meant 4 x $3.50. Stick to Tim Tams, my friend! Didn't the name 'Reject Shop' clue you in just a little? hehe
No, $3.50 the lot.
I just threw three and a half packets in the bin
:(
Ok, I can see why you feel ill if you had to trial half a pack to determine they were shit. Or was it like when you taste something and you're not sure if it's bad or not, so you have more, then have more again to confirm? Go across the road and get a maccas thickshake to make you feel better. Nothing like a super sugar hit to make you perky....or give you a sugar headache!
To be fair, half a pack is 2 biscuits. I was being generous with my description, it wasn't really half a packet...
Actually I ate 3
I'm intrigued. Will have to check them out tomorrow when I'm out and about.
