This is all about when a job goes wrong, when corporate America is left to run things with no responsibility whatsoever. Please feel free to comment and commiserate. I'm sure I'll be in need of a co-author to the book this just _has_ to become.

Smoke gets in your eyes

More news from Tyler Gifts...

Monday morning when people were going into work, they noticed something that smelled like car fumes in the back hallway. Apparently, when John went to snowblow the sidewalk, he decided to start the snowblower in the hall so he could attack the walk as soon as he got out. Here's what's wrong with that:

1) Who starts an engine in a building that isn't a garage or workshop?

2) There is a step down from the hall to the walk, so somehow John had to open the double doors and ease that thing from the building to the walk with the blades spinning all at the same time -- with a bad back. Somehow this made more sense than just going outside first.

3) There is an awning that covers the first 4 feet of walkway ouside the doorway anyway, so he would have been just as far ahead starting outside.

4) John is the smartest/best VP they have.

5) John is a VP! WTF is he doing blowing snow IN THE FIRST PLACE!? I'll tell you what. Bill, aka "Captain Patience" happened to get in early that day and didn't have anybody else in yet to exercise his manhood on, so he called John to do it. More great mangerial skill from the top down.

Man, I miss that place.
