Locked In a Room By Myself With No Human Contact Until Further Notice

I'm not nice this week. I'm not even halfway pleasant. I am a giant ball of mean, nastyness.

I'm trying not to talk to people. I'm actually trying not to LOOK at people, for fear my eyes will become deadly laser beams and I'll kill someone I care about. I'm trying to hide in my cube and say nothing.

And yet . . .

PEOPLE KEEP CALLING. Or they keep "stopping by my cube" to say hi. Or they ask me to DO THINGS for them. To like, work. Or they want me to do things like EAT LUNCH WITH THEM. Are they crazy?? Have they MET me this week?

I need a door . . . or a sign or something. They need to know it's not safe to play near me right now. Maybe I'll make one that says "Swim at your own risk: lifeguard eaten by a Kate shark and not likely to return."

If you have a better idea for a sign, let me know. I'm getting desperate at this point.

Mine says "Those who enter will be pelted with gummie bears." Does that help?

Oooh! That's good. Gummy Bears won't hurt anyone, yet will give me the satisfaction of actually throwing stuff at someone. Plus, Ooh yum! Gummy bears!

OH no! I'm one of the people who has been calling you! Forgive me, mad friend. Ok, so a sign...lets see. Here are some ideas: "No survivors" or "Approach at own risk - no one else has made it out alive" or "...I wouldn't dare" even the ol' "This is the evil cube of no return!" Let me know how those work out! Mmmmmwa Ha Ha!!!

I hope your storm cloud lifts, sunshine. I so hate when that happens - you just want to be LEFT THE HELL ALONE but everyone attacks you like you're wearing a sign that says, "Talk to Me!" I sit in an area of high traffic and it bugs me when people walk by because they look at my computer screen. Dammit.

I HATE those kind of days! At my first job, I saw several people in the cube farm that had those room divider/folding screen things in the opening of their cubicle to provide a "door" of sorts. Don't know if that is an option for you or not, but it's a thought!

Hahaha...I've always wanted to get one of those "bead doors"...you know what I mean, right? Haha..It would pin right to the wall! I wonder how long I could have it up before someone said something. Haha..or if I got it made so the beads looked like my company's logo maybe that would help my cause?

I have a "wallpaper" for my computer that is a black background and in white it says "'So why do you waste my time?' is the answer to the question on your mind."

I put it up when I'm pissy.

I don't think you are a giant ball of mean nastiness at all - you really made my day with your comment! ;) Thanks much!
