    Day off from work

    I urgently needed a day off work, but I knew the Boss would not allow me to take leave. I thought if maybe I acted 'crazy' he would tell me to take a few days off. So, I hung upside down on the ceiling making funny noises.

    My co-worker (who is blonde) asked me what I was doing. I told her that I was pretending to be a light bulb, so that the Boss might think I was crazy and give me a few days off.

    A few minutes later the Boss came into the office and asked, "What in the name of God are you doing?" I told him I was a light bulb.

    He said, "You are clearly stressed out. Go home and recuperate for a couple of days." I jumped down and walked out of the office. When my co-worker (the blonde) followed me, the Boss asked her, "...And where do you think you're going?"

    (You're gonna love this...)






    She said, "I'm going home too. I can't work in the dark.."

    I wish I could tell you guys that, but it did not happen to me personally. I found the story somewhere online and thought it funny enough to share.
