Too much

This one's too good not to write about - I've mentioned I work with some fun people, and some nutty people. There's one in particular we all like to poke fun at because he really is a few sandwiches shy of a picnic...

Today I'm back talking to the accountant and this guy comes back to talk about billing for a particular client. As he's telling us about why this client freaked out about the most recent bill, he's playing with a rubber band. Now, most people who play with rubber bands will put said rubber bands around wrists and snap them, or that sort of thing. Not this guy. He was playing with the rubber band around his head. At one point either the accountant or myself must've given off a funny look because this guy said, "Excuse my playing Pocahontas."

It was all we could do not to bust out laughing at the guy. After he left the area it took me several minutes to compose myself before walking back to my desk (I have to walk right by him to get back to my area). Man.

That is really funny. Picturing someone playing with a rubber band around his head. And, I'm assuming, he said this with a straight face?? You really do work with an interesting group of people!!!

A rubber band around his HEAD!?!?! I can't picture a rubber band that would fit around someone's head without sqeezing their brains out!

What?!!! Like none of you ever played Pocahontas in the office before...I mean really the only thing better to do with a rubber band around your head than pretend your an indian is pretend you're a pirate but you need a post-it note for that one. :-)
