You keep crackers in your office desk, don't you?

I would but the office has a mice problem. And this is true. I could care less about seeing a mouse run by, I dont like it but it doesnt bother me. However they seem to like to get in people's drawers. In the past couple weeks there have been a number of cases where in the middle of the day, in a pretty quiet office, a woman has started screaming. For half a second or so its pretty terrifying. Then after everyone realizes what the reason is there is a bunch of relieved laughter.

I woldnt scream but I do admit I would not like it if I was reaching in my drawer for something and a mouse was there.

Had one literally walk across my keyboard as I was working about 2 years ago. NYC mice are bold, they're not afraid of people. There have been strict rules put in place regarding storing and disposing of food by our desks.

Everything edible in my desk is in a big tupperware container. Up until last week that excluded some tea bags, Splenda®, and vitamins. Last week my coworker had mice get into her Equal® so just to be safe I now have everything boxed.

The office needs a barn cat.

Understandable if she is the type of woman that people would want to get into her drawers.

When someone from the south says "how come" instead of "why." Drives me fucking insane. Sounds so ignorant. :gaah:

I don't think that is a particularly southern saying...I've heard it growing up in the north.

This may have appeared earlier in the thread, but it popped up again today with the Duck Dynasty hicks.

People who can't figure out that Freedom of Speech applies to the government or a government sponsored institution only and NOT to private companies and other citizens.

The guy got asked a question and he responded. Fine. A&E - his employer - found his remarks unpleasant and potentially harmful to their business, so they've suspended him from the show. And people are going off about his Freedom of Speech being violated. It drives me nuts. :gaah:

You can say whatever you want but you also have to accept the fact that there will be consequences for what you say. They can't lock him up but outside of that whatever happens to him is fair game.

Said it in another thread, I heard somebody ask why is anybody investing any stock into what a guy that tricks birds into flying into a massacre for a living says?
