MorganLaFey: hey
WScranton8: hi
MorganLaFey: so today was awful
MorganLaFey: like, get a new job, burn the whole place down awful
MorganLaFey: the only saving grace was that I fell asleep at work
MorganLaFey: and when that’s the best thing…
WScranton8: I know how you feel
WScranton8: like, my day wasn’t that bad
WScranton8: but it was?
WScranton8: you ever have a day that ought to feel totally shitty but somehow manages to turn itself around because of one minor thing?
MorganLaFey: only all the time
MorganLaFey: usually because of you :-)
MorganLaFey: or, like, this one friend I have at work who’s kinda cool
WScranton8: hey, I try, and I’m sure she does too
WScranton8: but actually, funny you should mention that, I have someone at my work who does that too
WScranton8: you remember “normal chick”?
MorganLaFey: the one vaguely sane person at your workplace?
MorganLaFey: yeah, I remember
MorganLaFey: wish there were a sane woman at mine, I could use a girlfriend
WScranton8: what about your one friend?
MorganLaFey: oh, he’s great, but it’s not quite the same thing, you know?
WScranton8: I suppose not
WScranton8: anyway, she’s awesome
WScranton8: like I think I told you before
MorganLaFey: yeah, awesome but taken I think was your description
WScranton8: *sigh* yeah
WScranton8: so she’s just...well she reminds me of you
WScranton8: and our conversations here
MorganLaFey: so totally amazeballs :-P
WScranton8: yeah ;-)
WScranton8: and today was really bad
WScranton8: like, as bad as you said plus nuke the place from orbit bad
WScranton8: and just sitting next to her made everything OK
MorganLaFey: aww
MorganLaFey: that’s really sweet
MorganLaFey: and if she can do that I’m flattered you think she’s like me
WScranton8: :-) no flattery
WScranton8: just the facts, ma’am
MorganLaFey: :-)
WScranton8: so I’m sorry you don’t have someone like that to make your day better
WScranton8: or, sorry, I’m assuming, you probably do
MorganLaFey: I think I might
MorganLaFey: since I’m talking to one of them
WScranton8: aww
WScranton8: and you do that for me too, never think you don’t
WScranton8: but I meant in person
MorganLaFey: yeah
MorganLaFey: it’s different, isn’t it?
WScranton8: yeah
WScranton8: too bad
MorganLaFey: so what made your day so bad? It really can’t have been worse than mine
WScranton8: terrible meetings—I swear my boss is a possessed evil child—and on top of that I lost a major client to a coworker
WScranton8: like, seriously, what kind of company makes their own salespeople compete against each other?
WScranton8: how do you justify that kind of business model?
WScranton8: IT MAKES NO SENSE
MorganLaFey: I’m sorry
MorganLaFey: if it helps, my boss is an infant in big boy clothes too
WScranton8: it does, a little
WScranton8: at least we can suffer together
MorganLaFey: and I’m not a salesperson, but I’m pretty sure I’d be frustrated if my coworkers were undermining me. Not that I’m sure how they would, but if anyone could find a way to, it would be them.
WScranton8: I hear you
WScranton8: how’d we land the two worst jobs in the world?
MorganLaFey: just lucky I guess
MorganLaFey: but hey, gives us something to talk about, right?
WScranton8: it does at that
WScranton8: so, um, how’s the art?
MorganLaFey: the art?
WScranton8: yeah, it’s been a while since I heard you talk about your art
WScranton8: been painting much recently?
MorganLaFey: no, you know, I just haven’t had the time
MorganLaFey: if it’s not going to be good, why do it, you know?
WScranton8: no, Morgan, I don’t know
WScranton8: you’re a good artist. Remember when you sent me those pictures last year?
WScranton8: it’s not going to suck
WScranton8: you just have to keep doing it
MorganLaFey: thanks, but I dunno
WScranton8: well, I do
WScranton8: you have to keep doing it
WScranton8: it’s like a muscle: use it or lose it
WScranton8: and we don’t want you to lose it, do we?
MorganLaFey: no :-)
WScranton8: good :-)
