Radio @ work
So www.slacker.com is a constant presence at my work place.
If it's not on my computer, it's on someone else's in the office.
Sometimes I tune it out, sometimes I listen to it, and forget about work.
Today I was tuning it out because some country song was on.
The singer was really belting it out at some point, and I caught the words,
"And he don't know...
That I dug my key into the side of his pretty little souped up 4 wheel drive..."
Wait.. what?
I opened slacker.com from the bottom of my screen and looked.
Carrie Underwood - Before He Cheats.
Who?
Who cares I guess...
I started listening to the lyrics.
When the chorus came on again I caught it all:
"And he don't know...
That I dug my key into the side of his pretty little souped up 4 wheel drive,
carved my name into his leather seats,
I took a Louisville slugger to both headlights,
slashed a hole in all 4 tires...
Maybe next time he'll think before he cheats..."
I started laughing really hard.
My boss comes out of her office to ask what was so funny.
I turned it up for her, and two other people who came out of their offices.
Suddenly an office full of girls were laughing uproariously.
That's the moment the main boss walked in.
The one and only man.
He asked what was so funny.
Two of the ladies shrugged and walked into their offices, my boss said "oh nothing" and walked back into her office, and I was left alone with the main boss.
He looked at me for a moment.
"Trust me, you don't want to know," was all I said.
At that, he turned his heel and walked into his office.
Poor guy.
