The Delivery Guy

I was at work today, busy typing as usual when I realized that the room had suddenly gotten very, very quiet. I glanced up and saw that the door was open and I could hear a male voice coming from the other side of the door. He said that he had some equipment for us. Someone directed him to our 4th floor space.

The door closed and the room quickly exploded with chatter. "Did YOU SEE him?" "OH MY GOD, he's sooooo cute!" A few blushed while talking about him.

I grabbed my camera and ran the two flights upstairs to the 4th floor. I could hear him approaching from the other side.
I pretended to be fiddling with the double doors, opening it for him while I shot from the hip.
In the guise of documenting the receipt of some very expensive equipment, I was able to get these shots.
What I won't do for my fellow coworkers!

Rand, the day started out so boring like usual. It was great to have some excitement happening for a change.

Les, it was just too funny, "documenting" the goods, but pointing the camera straight at him. You're right . . . so no shame.

Hahahaha!! This is funny! Anything for some excitement in one's work day. He is kinda cute!! Great shots!!

jalna said...

nguyen.dung, I'm pretty sure he knew. I was kinda obvious.

celia, it does come in handy sometimes.

You know Betty, I think that's the whole point. We need little things like this to brighten up our mundane, boring workday. It pretty much kept us fueled for the rest of the day.

Unknown said...

Dont u guys SEE? Just slap some pointy ears and a blonde wig and what do you get? Your very own woodland elf...i wonder if he's skilled with the bow and arrow?

jalna said...

CQ, dat's soooo funny. I didn't even notice . . . perfect for Bran.

Betty Townsend said...

You are so right, Jalna. When I was still working we would do some pretty hilarious things. There was so much tension and pressure in our department because of what we had to do that sometimes we had to do something to break the tension. We had a very understanding supervisor and she thoroughly understood when we would "out of the blue" start laughing or throwing paper wads or whatever.

Betty, it's really nice when you get along with the people that you work with yeah!
