Quote of the Day - Parfaits Are Always Frustrating

FrustrationI’ll have to thank a couple of my coworkers for this beauty. That is, whenever I’m stupid enough to let my coworkers know about this little productivity-waster I call a blog. Here’s the set up:

Coworker one walks into the office first thing this morning with a yogurt parfait from McDonald’s. I’m sure it was just a plain parfait because this particular coworker is a “plain eater” and putting granola in her yogurt sounds about the same to her as pooping in it.

Instead of walking to her own office, she stands in the hallway and opens the lid to her yogurt parfait and sticks a spoon in. This is when she utters, without irony, the quote of the day to coworker two in a very high pitched voice (who later relayed it to me in perfect imitation):

“My strawberries are frozen! Why do I even get up in the morning?!?”

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, as long as you have everything in perspective, you too can start off your morning with just such a productive attitude.

Thank you. Thank you very much. Thus concludes this installment of G&H’s Quote of the Day.

    I can totally relate. Last night, I forgot to put my Cherry Coke Zeros in the fridge, so this morning they were at room temperature. My life is hard enough already without the added stress of warm Cherry Coke Zero.

    The Coca-Cola company pays me every time I leave a comment mentioning Cherry Coke Zero.

    Webmiztris: It may not have been as bad as it sounds, mainly because the quote of the day can only be the quote of the day when it’s taken out of context. But it’s still funny.

    Hey, tell her to hook me up with some of those frozen strawberries. I like ‘em that way.

    But if there’s any yogurt on them, tell her to forget about it. That’s just gross enough to make me want to chew my leg off.

    Poobah: You don’t like yogurt? Man, you are missing out…
