Come Up N's

At work when I was through cleaning I grabbed two empty jugs I dropped When I saw three women talking, I came up behind them and stopped I said, "Just look at those big jugs" They turned around when they heard that I held up the jugs with a smile In unison they said, "Oh, Pat!" I turned and bumped into the boss He asked me, "What did you just say?" "Oh, uh, nothing", I just stammered As I left, giggles faded away!

Hello PAT … and here was I thinking it was the jugs that you held in your hands. I giggled quite a bit when the penny dropped - thanks for the humour Pat - Lindsay

Thanks Chris! Sometimes weird stuff that comes out of my head isn't as funny to others as it seems to me. Maybe they could lighten up I figure!.............pat

Boss are such mood-killers! It's almost as if our showing up every day isn't enough. They want us to work too! ??? Funny on Pat!
