If you are starting to think you hate your job...

It's been a hard week at the office for me. Nothing bad happened, to the contrary. It was just hard. Lots of things to take care of, lots of people to talk to, lot's back-and-forth, lots of emails and pixels flying in all kinds of directions...Stress, stress, stress. I was complaining a tiny bit to my little sister who promptly alerted me to the following text:

When you have an 'I Hate My Job' day, try this...

On your way home from work, stop at your pharmacy and go to the thermometer section and purchase a rectal termometer made by Johnson & Johnson.

Be very sure you get this brand. When you get home, lock your doors, draw the curtains and disconnect the phone so you will not be disturbed. Change into very comfortable clothing and sit in your favorite chair. Open the package and remove the thermometer. Now, carefully place it on the table or surface so that it will not become chipped or broken.

Now the fun part begins.

Take out the literature from the box and read it carefully. You will notice that in small print there is a statement: 'Every Rectal Thermometer made by Johnson & Johnson is personally tested and then sanitized.'

Now, close your eyes and repeat out loud five times, "I am so glad I do not work in the thermometer quality control department at Johnson & Johnson."

Have a Nice Day and Remember, There is Always someone else with a Job that is More of a Pain in the A$$ than Yours!

And now I'm smiling. Hope you are too.

Hey.
Absolutely beside the (by the way hillarios) rectal thermometer story, I just wanted to say I spent half a day reading most of your blog and quite surprisingly rather enjoyed it. It has this nice, calm, a little monotonous, mesmerizing tone.. Can't say I was surprised to not see wedding puctures :) One thing I would really enjoy reading about though, would be why you decided to leave the US, how you husband took it and what he does right now. I don't need to tell you that going back to Bulgaria with your American husband is rather unconventional. Can't really call the reason I want to read about it curiosity, I'm rather trying to gain some insight in what reasons you had that I for example would probably never find within myself.
Once more, congrats on the beautiful writing from St Louis, MO
