Gabby's Office Fun I

Due to continuous inspiration from my friend, Merari, I've decided to start posting some office stories, whether they be current or happened at some point during my 3 year, 9-month employment at FIU. This particular story happened yesterday. I know a lot of people hate their bosses, but this is the first time I can hear the disgust and hate in a man's voice. I've blocked out his name for my office's security protocols. And please pardon the profanity, I thought it best to leave it in so you get the sense of the anger in his heart LOL. Enjoy!



Me: Good morning, FIU Testing. How can help you?

Man on Phone (MoP): Hello, Cesar?!

Me: Cesar is not in at the moment. Is there anything I can help you with?

MoP: Cesar?

Me: No, this is not Cesar. He won't be in until 11:30.

MoP: Listen I spoke to Cesar yesterday about possibly coming in earlier than 8am for an individual exam.

Me: Are you !@#^^&(#)(^!#?

MoP: Yeah.

Me: Well, what I can do is take your name and number down and give this message to Cesar when he comes in. I know he's proctoring an exam at that time, but I might be able to give him this message right before.

MoP: That's fine, buddy. But I really need to speak with him. There's no way my boss is gonna let me come to work late. She's new, but she's a cold ass bitch. She's the kind of woman who would say "no" just for the sake of saying "no." You get me?

Me: (trying to hold in laughter) Yeah, I understand. So, I'll have him give you a call back.

MoP: Please, buddy.


Apparently, this exchange between Cesar and MoP happened the day before.


MoP: Is there any way I can test earlier than 8am?

Cesar: Our office opens at 8, though.

MoP: Listen, I would pay you fifty bucks if you could proctor my exam at 8. The thing is that I have this new boss. She's one of those lesbian bitches who gets off on controlling a man. She loves to say "no." It pleases her...

Cesar: Well, I'll tell you what. I'll ask my director what we can do and I'll give you a call back tomorrow.

MoP: Thanks, Cesar. You have no idea what it's like to work with that woman.
