Occasional Digest - a story for you

A MAN cannot wait for his wife to update him on the latest gripping events in the ongoing saga of what’s happened in her office.

Anthony, not his real name, insists wife Jess, not her real name, begins revealing the latest developments as soon as she comes in, comparing the unpredictable tale to Game of Thrones or Bodyguard.

He said: “Has Linda actually filed that complaint? Did Matt steal Gerald’s chair, even though he knew it had been specially adjusted for him by facilities? And what of Donna’s flexitime?

“I spend most of the day thinking about it – my office is boring, nothing like as colourful and dramatic as hers – and then I’m on the edge of my seat as she reveals the latest twist.

“Who could’ve possibly imagined that Gill would overhear what Jackie said to James about the performance review? Why did Heather refuse to change the printer ink? Was Leanne really at the dentist?

“Try as I might, I can never see what’s coming. I mean the whole thing about Linda’s soy milk being left out of the fridge, who could have guessed? And what next?”

Wife Jess said: “Some women’s husbands aren’t interested in what happens at their work. But not every woman has a workplace as wild as mine.”
