The advantages of corporate jobs

Unlike my last job, there are certain advantages to working in a highly professional corporate office.
Take note: this is actually what counts in a job.

My desk drawer contains:
– Many spare pens
– Spare ruler
– Correction tape
– My very own stapler
– My very own pair of scissors
– Sticky-tape and dispenser
– Countless paperclips
– Several foldback clips
– Highlighters of varying colour
– Two mechanical pencils
– One traditional pencil, just for kicks
– An eraser for said pencils
– Spare post-it pads

And should I ever run out of any of these items, or should someone use them and fail to return them, I can just saunter over to the well-stocked stationary cupboard and get some more.

This was not possible at my last job. We were always stealing pens from one-another, especially from our supervisor who had a stash of several, she didn’t mind though so that was good. Aside from that, the stationary cupboard was locked. You know. Just in-case we lost billions of dollars through pen theft.

I like the stationary cupboard here. It is my friend.

RYN: Thanks for the cheesy get well:-P Asthma blows. Thank God for albuterol and nebulizers. I’ve been in bed for the past two days and I’m still sick. My work is hating me right now because I’ve called in the past two days. *cries* I’m going back to bed… *coughs up a lung*
