Temporary Escape from the Cube
Last night a group of friends and I were hanging out at a bar downtown. As far as Wednesday nights go it was fairly entertaining. The thing about Wednesdays is that when you are closing out a tab well after midnight, it makes it really hard to wake up in the morning and fill out your TPS reports. Well, fortunately for me, my own personal Lumbergh is out of the office and I don’t actually have to worry about whether or not my TPS report has a @#$%@ coversheet until Monday. This makes me happy. This also gives me zero incentive to actually leave at a decent hour. So, instead of closing the tab before midnight and going home to sleep, I opted to hang out with friends and “win” all of the Miller High-Life paraphernalia that was currently available. It was rather entertaining.
At the bar, they were having a promotional event that involved Miller High Life bottles and little white dots. If your bottle had a little white dot you win something. If it didn’t have a little white dot you didn’t win anything. This is very straight forward, right? Well that’s evidently not the case because some people had a really hard time with this concept. I was amazed to see most people go up to the bar and just ask for a High Life and then act all disappointed when they didn’t win anything. Come on people, how many times do you have to hear the rules. If you want to win something you have to order a High Life WITH a white dot. Repeat after me, “Amanda (the bartender..don't repeat this part), may I please have a High Life with a white dot on the bottom?” It’s not that hard.
I don’t understand why people were getting so worked up over a bunch of stupid shirts and other crap anyways.

Side note: I need to start testing engines again..there are only so many Office Space references that can be made.
