It's raining in my office again

Laura14 — Fri, 04 Jan 2019 13:55:12 GMT

My coworkers and I can't decide between a Gene Kelly dance off again or a wet t-shirt contest.

It's Friday so we may get a little wild up in here.

Any other ideas to pass the time until 5pm?

@qualitygal I like it! It's been a long time since I've been on a boogie board. Time to break one out again.

How about everyone dancing around the office to the 1982 hit song, 'It's Raining Men', by the Weather Girls?

Any male co-workers could always sing 'women' instead of 'men' if they choose!

I know it's almost 5:00, but what about the 'water dance' scene from the movie Flashdance?

One of my favorite scenes!

@Laura14You post such interesting situations. You could be a blogger...and maybe make money at it.

@esmerelda Do you know how many people have said something like that to me lately? Thank you.

I guess I am doing the book I've always threatened to. Your EZ Pays are all on me when I get the first royalty check.

I know you made a joke about the rain in your office but isn't it dangerous with electrical wiring? Why would your employer allow their employees to work in these conditions? I don't see anything funny about this situation. Am I missing something?

@elated I don't think it's funny either. My GM was actually walking out of her office to throw away her trash because I took her trash can to catch the water again thinking it might remind her to maybe call a roofer again? Maybe? Bueller? Bueller?

Have you heard about OSHA? If called, they will handle this issue. I was just concerned about your safety. If someone is injured, it will costs them dearly. Be safe.

I would be worried about mold and mildew in the office. I once worked in an office for about four months under an AC vent in the ceiling. I got so sick and coughed all day at work. I coughed so much that I would vomit.

When I went to see a doctor, he said at had asthma. I didn't think so. I kept saying that the AC vent made me sick. I put in a request for a job in another building and It took about six months after ai moved, but I finally felt better.

About a year later, mold was found in the building in the vents and it was closed for remodeling and removal.

That mold stuff could kill you or at least make you feel like you wanna die. It is dangerous to breath that stuff. imagine what is up there in your wet ceiling.
