Our office recently moved from a decrepit building to a high rise commercial complex. Sure it looks great but the price of food is killing us. Anyway, here is a day-to-day account of what's happening.

First Day

• Stayed at the old office to monitor hauling of stuff. Didn't do much except count the rats . . . err mice scuttering around. One brushed up on my ankle, and I smashed it with a broomstick. It was wearing a red boxer shorts.

Second day

• Opened all the boxes containing my stuff. Started gluing my Batman action figure on top of my PC monitor. Upon seeing it, everyone called me childish. I put up a tantrum and started throwing things around.


• It stank in our room. It was like being inside a john. I looked outside the door and hey what do you know? It was the toilet!

Third day

• The janitors started pasting used carton boards on the glass windows to preserve the cold air. Our room looked like a bomb shelter.


• First birthday celebration in the new office! It was Michelle's birthday. We bought pizza and put candles on it. We lit them but before Michelle could blow it, the candles triggered the water sprinkler! Soggy pizza anyone?

Fourth Day

• Things were settling down. We were so happy that the pantry was already in working condition! Hurray for running water! We were so happy we washed the dishes five times.


• During the afternoon break we went to the over-priced cafeteria at the ground floor. We guys ogled over the pretty lady cashier. Our lady companions were calling us chauvinist pigs so when a good-looking guy walked by, we ogled him too!

Fifth Day

• One of our vice presidents, Mrs. M, came to visit. She's a stickler about wearing company IDs, but I noticed that she wasn’t wearing one! Why wasn’t she wearing her ID? Is she above the law? Is that the reason she comes to the office late? I wanted to report her to the security personnel but I rather not.


• Visited one of the rooms at the adjacent side. Wait a minute, why is this room bigger? With powerful aircon! Wall-to-wall glass windows with a great view! However some dumb guys installed the communal toilet at the center of the room. So if you're going to the john you must bring a brown bag with eye holes, so that you can go in anonymously.
