Friends Make Work Better- Adult Edition

Friends at work make the corporate world a little bit better!

Friends Make Work Better- Adult Edition

I work at a newspaper.

I usually work 8-5.

WORK GETS FLIPPIN BORING.

Yes I enjoy my job, I enjoy it a lot. But when I first started, I knew 2 people in the town and that was it. I had 0 friends and had no idea how I was going to survive living in a tiny town with no friends.

Until I met some co workers.

You might think that only older people work at the newspaper. That is not true.

I work in the advertising and the newspaper department, When I first started I was invited out by one of the news girls to get drinks. I LOVED IT!

Eventually a few more girls got hired at the paper and we have formed a little girl gang.

We do everything together, EVERYTHING.

WE LITERALLY ONLY HAVE EACH OTHER IN THIS TINY TOWN.

We eat lunch together, we eat dinner together, we get drinks, carve pumpkins, got to national parks, hikes and the bowling alley together. There is no stopping us.

Here are some facts that I have lived through with these ladies.

1. They have your back.

THAT IS A FACT

We have been through so much together in the small amount of time that we have been friends. Whether it has to do with bosses, boys or landlords.

2. Vent Sessions.

WE VENT ALL THE TIME, LIKE PROBABLY WAY TOO MUCH

Any little thing annoys us, we know we are safe to rant,

We vent about boys, work, how hungry we are, how we decorated our apartment, how we don't wanna cook or go get gas after work. or go to the store. I meant it when I said everything.

3. Biggest Cheerleaders.

THAT'S A FACT JACK

We are always trying to cheer each other on in the work that we do!

4. GROUP MESSAGE

Yes, we are adults living on our own with an awesome group message. We can literally text anything and it will get a ridiculous convo going,

5. LASTLY, THEY HAVE TO BE YOUR CO WORKER BUT CHOOSE TO BE YOUR FRIEND

Yes, they are stuck with you at work but the fact that we all hang out outside of work on the weekly shows how special our friendship really is.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
