At work today, one of the fellows from maintenance was in our office, restocking the soda machine in the kitchen. For some reason, he had his Pit Bull with him. (I'm not sure why.) It was all fine and whatever, until: The dog took a big, smelly dump in the middle of the office carpet.…

Stars! They’re just like us!
Coworker: “Jillian, I need you to help me with something for our department meeting.” Jillian: “Ok.
