Hump Day My Ass

So I actually heard someone using the term Hump Day this morning when I was downstairs getting myself breakfast. There's nothing I hate more than interoffice cliche lines thrown back and forth b/c people are such drones and can't come up with anything better in terms of conversation. Well, maybe I should say there's nothing I hate more than Italian restaurants named Macaroni. Anyways, if you can't come up with anything better to say, don't say anything at all, do yourselves both a favor... it's ok that 2 people aren't obviously comfortable enough with each other which is the reason that these things like stupid saying are born in the workplace. Something needs to be done...

Traditional Way (Wednesday morning) -- aka. the wrong way -- [riding an elevator together in the morning]
Bill: So Jeff, how's it going this morning?
Jeff: Good. Just have to get past hump day. Yourself?
Bill: Just great.... How about that weather we're having?
Jeff: Looking good out there, too bad I'll be stuck behind the ole desk.
Bill: Yes, true, I'll be stuck there as well.
Bill & Jeff: hahahaha (laughing like idiots)

New Way (Wednesday morning) -- aka. the right way -- [same situation]
Bill: So Eric, how's it going this morning?
Eric: Fantastic. Although my dick is sore from fucking my wife in the ass last night. Yourself?
Bill: ...

You see how well that works? Bill shut the fuck up, Eric gets to enjoy a peaceful ride in the elevator and Eric becomes the hero of the office b/c his wife enjoys anal sex. There are no losers here except Bill and that's only because he's been a loser his entire life.

More to come on interoffice politics later.
