Cubicle Rule Number 9: Never forget about the quarterly company meeting.
I’d completely forgotten that the meeting was today. And to add to my bewilderment, I was presented with one of the company’s two quarterly “Value Awards”.
Having forgotten about the meeting, I naturally showed up in my XCF clothes (eXtremely Casual Friday): my old jeans, beat-up boots, and a raggy old corduroy shirt. As I shook the president’s hand on stage, I was very happy that I’d decided to shave this morning.
Oh, the award category was “Sense of Humour”. I hope they’re laughing with me. Hmm.
