Finally, a perfect post for the icon

Gah! Get me out of my office! I just want TEA, dammit, and I think I'd get it quicker over a campfire. We do have a water cooler - the type that also heats the water for tea. Does it work? No, of course not. Neither does the replacement cooler. No problem. Use the microwave? Sure! But I don't know if it's the microwave, the surge protector, or the coffeepot, but the circuit blows after a few seconds of microwave. The other day, after it died 10 times in a row, I gave up. Today, I kept hitting it. 10-20 seconds at a time, and eventually I had hot water.

Love my government facility. At least it's not over 80 in here (this week).

Try the microwaves in the bay lunch area? They work fine.

Stupid appliances.
Not 80 in our conference room today either. Unfortunately, it is actually 60 or below. Facilities has brought in 2 space heaters but the fans are still blowing enough air to instantly cool my coffee. I can't believe i'll have to bring a coat/cloak to work in LATE JULY. I think I'll stick my coffee cup out the window to warm it up. And of course, this is the meeting that started at 9:00 today and runs through Friday. And we can't even think about changing conference rooms since all of HQ is here this week taking up all available space. Lets all start campfires in our offices! Mulled wine anyone?
