Not only is the timing of this prompt just about perfect, the incident has that element as well π

August 14, 2003- New job! My boss (also her first day β revamped department) admits she doesn’t get along with computers. It’s a busy day as we set up; later everyone is chatting and she gently bumps my monitor. The lights go out at that instant. βWhat did I do?!β Yep, the Northeast blackout β my boss caused it.

Oh no!
Wasn’t so bad. I didn’t have to take a train, so getting home was the same way (just no traffic signals) I got the next day off too π
Cool! π
So I can assume that YOU’RE in charge of things now, right? π
Thanks playing Ketchup, Mr. BT. Now, I know who to call if I have a computer problem. You and/or Guapo.
Considering another person in the department bought me a mug with “the real boss” on it, it didn’t take long.
And yes I use it at my new job now π
Awesome. Throw her right under the bus. Very funny take on the prompt. Thanks for linking!!
We can laugh about it now…
Oops!
Ha! yes pretty much π
So what happened next –
A – you mocked her mercilessly?
B – she told people not to mess with her or she’d do it again?
C. – BRRRAAIINNSSS!
Her husband was there, so he did the mocking.
