"The Drop"

Not to steal the words right from your blog's...mouth...Bethany, but "that just happened."
I work with hilarious people. Out of control. And I love it.
Commence story:
This cryptic message came to my work inbox only moments ago...


Then came the phone call.

A muffled (was that a transformer I just heard???) voice informs me of a drop. To be prepared. I hung up laughing.

But they meant business.

In walks messenger. Who shall remain nameless. Black briefcase strapped to arm.

The handcuffs from the wrist to the briefcase strangely resemble EFY wristbands...hmmm.....

"Get out your scissors."

I'm laughing. Laughing and grabbing the scissors.

"Cut it off." He motions toward the wristband.

He opens the briefcase, and in one swift movement, my blue pen is safely back in my possession.

"This never happened." He says, and walks out of my office.

Successful drop.

Over.

That was a great moment. I don't think we would be able to get through our stressful days with a little bit of humor like that. Hope you have a great weekend!
