Picking on the Boss

elfinblazeGah! So much to do this week! Writing and making Christmas presents/cards and appointments! (Don't worry, no major medical emergency this time, just my skin acting up again. I'm not sure if I want it to be eczema or an allergy, and which would be easier to deal with.) I think I'll be running around non-stop like a headless chicken between now and Christmas. Six weeks, people!!
My poor boss. She had two smart arses to deal with this week.
Boss: It was the wrong thing to do, but I thought it might ease that down...
Mrs Chimney: 'I think', she says.
Me: Don't you know you're a guinea-pig here?
Mrs Chimney: I'm going to put up a sign when I leave here: Abandon all hope, ye who enter here.
Me: Then I'll add a note underneath: If you've already abandoned all hope, feel free to enter.
We were laughing. My boss was despairing.
Boss: Between the two of you, I'm not having a very good day.
Mrs Chimney was on fire that day. Every word out of her mouth was a joke. She's brilliant. She said when she was leaving, "any more rudeness from me and I won't be allowed to come back." But considering I haven't been fired yet, she's not in any danger.
[EDIT: Hannah's surgery fund raising closes in two days, so I guess this is my last call out for help.]
