This morning at 8:05am I got to work. As normal, always the 5mins late. Even if I take not the bus before, but the one before that, I still end up for a reason or another 5 damn minutes late..
But that's not why I am posting this. While I was making my morning black coffee and pondering at the mysterious factors that never failed on making the clock of the rest room pointing, with the longest middle finger at the 5past hour, of why oh why I am always exactly the 5mins late..
Sorry, back to the story, just as I finished making the coffee, I heard three work colleagues debating in more or less along these lines;
1st ; Nothing is better than the middle, give a bit and take a bit
2nd ; Thats how it comes, just don't play around with it
3rd ; Hey listen, fully skimmed is the healthiest, its proven
2nd ; It has to be all whole man, keep it natural don't fiddle with it
3rd ; You are fat enough, you wanna put extra pounds on??
....and so on the conversation kept on.. I went to my desk, drank my coffee, and after while, I headed to the toilet for a long awaited pee..
In the way I passed the three guy's desks. They were still arguing between them;
2nd ; Nooo, you are losing all the goodness
1st ; I tell ya man, it has to be semi skimmed
3rd ; It doesn't taste like water!!
I realised they were talking about milk! right.. Downloaded the load and headed back. They were still busy in their exciting debate. Sat at my desk for while longer, and across the room, they were still arguing about it. Now the conversation turned to colour scheme;
Red cap man, no no go green its better, na, the blue is the healthiest..
Anywhoo.. while the milky thoughts nagged at my ears and made my mouth run dry, I headed to make another black cuppa, kettle boiled, looked at the clock wondering that after all this time, it can't be still 8:05am.. no.. no it can't.. the guys been talking for ages now.. then why is it giving me the middle finger on 5 past 8.. stop it.. move.. mooove?!
Ran back to my desk, and it was 10am!! With a sudden relief I realised that the rest room's clock was a dead as a dried up cow. Dead..! A physical state I've been wishing all morning on these three sad souls..
Ahhhh.. I was probably never late then.. But I'll never know for sure..
What I would like to know, as I found myself in a new dilemma, is, how do you like your milk, Full, Semi Skimmed or 100% Skimmed?
