High school behavior doesn't end with High school it continues into the work place and is a sad but common feature of human nature The water cooler is just one example.
"Dry Throat at the Water Cooler" Particle after particle, Riding out the sandy dunes Wanting so much to nibble on the grapevine My wind pipes crack, from dry wit and gossip All the witty remarks are scarce Snatched up by others flushing out fabrications Diverting attention from themselves Drowning in their own Egos Arid of thought for fifteen minutes It is hardly a break at all So dry of talking coworker factoids Will I have to swallow their moist Derision.
