I just got this chain of emails. (changed names to protect the innocent)
Email 1 Susie Smith is the new Director of the Department A. She has two new people that will be working for the Department A and will need a user and pass word to get on the computer. Susie wants to know who does she contact.
Response (from Coworker)
After the HR paperwork has been filled out they will send us the information for the user account creation.
Buahahahaha… The lady at work is priceless and our whole group gets a fucking kick out of her but yet annoyed as shit.
One day she was sending a fax to a coworker in a satellite office down in FL. She apparently dialed on the fax his telephone number and not the fax number.
After walking away from the fax, the coworker answered the phone since it rang. You could hear him through the fax saying “hello, hello, hello”
So she started walking over to the fax… as she was getting close to the fax machine she started responding back to him. “hello…hello… HELLO” which yes, she did gradually get louder. lol
So we thought that was the top of the cake, till she picked up the phone for the fax machine and started yelling into the phone “HELLO… HELLO” thinking he could hear her.
I was trying so hard to hold the laughter in till I looked around the room and saw everyone beat red and holding it in as well. It was when my coworker that sits behind me sent me an IM with him saying I almost pissed my pants that I started laughing hysterically.
We have had so many more situations with her, but that was the best one that I will never forget.
