The guys in the back have been taking bets.
My assistant at work just happens to be (or maybe I did a little recruiting) a very dear friend. Our personalities are much the same in the fact that we both know when it is time to play and when it is time to get down to business.
Both of us are genuinely happy individuals and find humor in just about everything. We have been known to have paper ball fights down the halls making sure to hit anyone that happens to step out of their offices, oops sorry about that. However, when it comes to business we are organized, proficient and dedicated, which at times pulls both of us into a world where play doesn’t exist for a time. Our whole attitude is directed to the business at hand.
One of the things that we find humorous is that we pretend that we are fighting. Most of the time it is just a loud verbal comment to see how many people will look up from their desks to see what is happening. Other times if something happens, we act like it is physical. For example, the other day for no reason I got a bloody nose and so I walked into my boss’ office and told them that she hit me. One of the owners always just laughs, the other one loves to play along so he marched to her desk and scolded her for being mean to me. It is stupid, but it keeps things light in a business that can be demanding and stressful.
Well I guess that all our fun and games got the guys in the back talking and they called the two of us in to settle a bet. They wanted to know who we thought would win if there was an actual fist fight that occurred between the two of us. We looked at each other and began to laugh. First because neither of us would ever really hit the other one due to the fact that we can’t be mad at anyone for very longer than 2.3 seconds. Second, we would talk things through. However, third was that neither of us was certain who would win. They then told us that they would pay to see that fight. They said it would be the fight of the century. They would even clear out the back room to give a spot to hold it, although flying computer monitors would add some spice to the fight.
If it ever happens, I will be sure to let you know who wins, but now is the time to place your bet…….the guys are accepting them.
