Yuppie Humor: It's all in the spelling




Posted by Rio S.

Okay, so another hell week’s coming to a close and you’re probably gagging from the toxic office week by now. When things are bad, when it’s a miracle you haven’t succumbed to the temptation of coming to the office armed with a semi-automatic and with the intention of mowing down everybody in sight (including the sneering guy who occupies a cubicle beside yours), it’s important to laugh. That said here’s another round of Office Humor stories.

My friend Elaine tells this funny overheard from her former office:

Agent: Sir, that’s Emerson. E like in Egg, M like in Emerson…

In another call center stint, I once had to listen in on one of my friend’s calls. So I plugged in my headset and sat beside her. One of her calls went like this:

Agent: So that’s T like in tiger? Like rawr! Tiger? (All the while making a clawing gesture with her hands.)

Me: (I press the mute button.) Dude, are you high?

Apparently, she was.
