Why my coworkers are the absolute best

Work hard, play even harder.

Why my coworkers are the absolute best

So I got a new job a few months ago, and I was very wary of it. I really don't like girls and all of my coworkers besides two are girls. Clearly, I went in sort of nervous but I'm so thankful for this crazy group of people I call coworkers. So I naturally had to write everyone telling them how great they are, right? I asked everyone their favorite thing about our crazy group and here is what everyone said:

We're Honest/Blunt

That is the understatement of the year. Sugarcoating is a myth around here. Anytime some one does something dumb or isn't doing something the way they should everyone tells them, I'm not kidding, literally everyone.

We communicate

This sort of ties into honesty, but it still applies. We always talk about what is going on in our workplace we communicate issues and praise and everything the other people need to know. Its pretty great because communication is super important with what we do.

We all have the same sick sense of humor

We're pretty gross, we talk about gross things. Bowel Movements, gross medical stuff, and yet we still act professional because we're all the same. I pray for the person who tries to join our team that doesn't have the same sense of humor as us.

We hold each other accountable

So there are 5-10 fast food restaurants within our area of work place and about 99% of the time I want to eat there instead of the lunch I brought for myself. Well my coworkers are the first people to tell me that I don't need it, and to remember that I want to eat better. We practically create programs to help each others bad behaviors and habits.

We're honestly way too entertaining

We are hilarious. Every other thing we say is a joke, but we still manage to get our jobs done. I'm pretty sure we could have a sitcom about our work place and ratings would soar because of how hilarious we are.

Lastly, we are a team

We support each other's lives. It's more than just work to us, these people know everything about us. Who we're dating, what our plans are for the weekends, we just talk about everything.

I'm so grateful that the people I work with care about me more than just how I work, they care about who I am as a person and I'm so lucky to have such great coworkers.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

Books were always about understanding for me, about learning the way someone else sees, about connection.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

I keep making this joke whenever the idea of books is brought up: "God, I wish I knew how to read." It runs parallel to another stupid phrase, as I watch my friends struggle through their calculus classes late at night in our floor lounge: "I hope this is the year that I learn to count." They're both truly idiotic expressions, but, when I consider the former, I sometimes wonder if there's some truth to it.
