Typical Day At The Office

Today at work it seemed like I was on the show "The Office". The people I work with are pretty funny and like to joke around with each other, this helps keep everyone's spirits up and makes the day more enjoyable. One salesman in particular seems like he is always having a good time and likes to pull pranks on his co-workers. Today he called a woman in the Accounting department, asked if it was Thursday, then said "Ok thanks bye" and acted like he was going to hang up. Later, while talking to the woman, he was inquiring about a sales order from a company called Odim. The woman either didn't hear what he said or didn't quite understand so he explained, "Odim, you know, like I was out with the boys and I owed em.” It may have been one of those times you had to be there to appreciate it, but his conversation was on speaker phone so we could hear everything. My other co-workers actually started crying because they were laughing so much.

Later on in the day, the salesman needed help with something on the computer, so he called someone from the IT department. They concluded that it would be easier for the IT employee to come to the Sales department to help with the issue so, while he was on his way, the salesman turned off the lights and told us to yell "Surprise!" when he walked in. The employee walked in and was totally confused when the salesman turned the lights back on and started singing "Happy Birthday". These are just a couple examples of the funny things that go on throughout a typical day at the office...
