This summer Drew got a job working in a museum. He was super excited about it because it gives him the chance to get some experience under his belt. Afterall he is studying Archeology.
He came home in excitement. This was gonna be an awesome job. His summer co-workers were all fun, the job sounded as if it were going to be super casual, as long as they made up their hours every week, they got to make their own schedule.
But then , by the third day, stories started coming home about how the boss seems to have this certain muskiness about her. That nobody has seen her in fresh clothing. That they were all beginning to think that something was a little psycho-scary about this woman. While yes it is great when someone can be passionate about their job, but she way passed the line into obsession.
Well all of them needed some stress relief from the job so .Drew, me, and his co-workers all went out to a movie, where I heard these stories in no more exaggerated form than Drew told me and started to believe Drew wasn't just trying to make me laugh.
By the third week they learned she has, no family whatsoever within Ontario.she has 4 cats, a lawn two meters high, thinks everyone else has communication problems, drinks alone in her office, prides herself on having a personal conversation with Dr. Phil, and that she does at least have 1 other shirt
This is where she started picking on the other male co-worker, .Between then and now there have been more stories to recount than one could imagine. Not only about her, but the crookedness of how she runs the museum
Well anyway that guy got fired yesterday, for as much as we can tell, not watering a plant he was never asked to, not stocking a personal refridgerator with Pop because he was too busy with the other responsibilities that are actually in his job description, and wearing flip flops to work when there is no dress code. Seeing his father works for the workers rights of Ontario, she has now caused herself more trouble than she knows, but that's a story that hasn't panned out yet.
The rest of the Co-workers have been given new museum policies to follow, not that it matters, they only have 2 and a half more weeks till their contract is done. They are all counting the hours and kind of wish they were the ones shoved out the door.
So, Drew and I invited His now X co-worker and his wife, and their baby over for some "congratulatory" beers on escaping the psycho-smelly alcoholic boss.( The baby didn't get any beer)
We had a lot of fun. They admired our house, we ogled at their baby, We gave them beer, they gave us chocolate.
I hope to have them over again and bring them into our circle of friends. Their pretty fun people. And that chocolate is amazing with strawberries, I'll at the very least need the recipe. =)
