The condo construction office is a trailer basically stuffed with thousands of technical drawings. Literally thousands. They’re laid out in giant booklet form on two great worktables, they’re hanging from rack hangers. They’re rolled into giant rolls and stacked on shelves and on more shelves and standing in bunches on the floor in every corner.
Also of note, in this trailer, is my fat ass on an office chair watching a fail video on my computer while dipping my spoon into a brand new 650 g tub of strawberry yogurt…
…when the chair suddenly bucks. And I jolt so bad that the yogurt tub flies from my hands.
Oh... Oh does it fly.
I have no recollection of its entire unauthorized flight path, surely complete with some number of ricochets, and no ability to reconstruct it based on the patterns of carnage left behind. It looks like a sustained food fight broke out in here.
About 200 g of yogurt remains in the tub which I have picked up off the floor.
Here’s the list off all the things that got splattered with the 450 grams or so of wayward yogurt which I had to clean up:
l laptop computer (screen, keyboard and left hinge area)
l laptop chill pad
l reading glasses
l water bottle
l the floor
l one wall
l one window
l three table tops
l one robust wooden table leg
l three (fabric) chairs
l one shelf
l one file cabinet
l somebody’s boots
l large utility tub
l laptop power cord
l my jacket (lining and exterior)
l briefcase
l binder
l notebook
l duty cell phone
l mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
l (sorry, that was me scraping dried yogurt off the ‘M’ key)
l circular saw blade
l oxygen bottle
l wall/ceiling molding
l my pants
l my shirt
l my arm
l my face
l probably my hair; I don’t know. There’s no mirror in here. And last but not least:
l one technical drawing. Just one. Out of thousands. It’s an honest-to-god miracle.
And here are the cleaning supplies I had to make do with:
l my tongue
l refrigerated bottled water
l napkins
Thank you for validating this experience with me.
