My Day At Work

Ramblings / November 10, 2008 / John / 0

Honestly. There’s two ways I can describe today.

Firstly, imagine I am separated from the rest of the office by a giant fishtank that fills my whole field of view. Now imagine that the fishtank is full of huge, twitching, orange octopi which are juggling hand grenades. Next, imagine there’s a slow-motion car crash involving a big purple car and a wailing ambulance happening on the other side of the fishtank. Now, imagine I’m trying to work on a large amount of really important, really complicated things while trying to see if I’m going to be blown up by the grenade juggling octopi and morbidly drawn to the slow motion car crash.

That’s my day.

Alternately, it can be expressed in perl as follows:

require bleeps;

require stupid::purple;

require stupid::orange;

sub fail() {

SUMMON_RAPTORS();

}

while(1) fail;

That is also my day.
