Take your fandom to work day
Jun. 8th, 2006 11:28 pmYesterday was apparently "Take your Fandom to Work Day". Every time I turned around I was being bludgeoned with fandom references. Think I'm kidding?
It started when I was checking some problems in one of our contracts. To sort things out, I had to use forms SG-1 and SG-2. Which brought a smile to my face, until I actually tried to figure out exactly how I was supposed to fill them in. So, I called the department concerned, and ended up speaking to a lady named Tauri. Luckily, it was over the phone, so she couldn't see my face when she introduced herself.
After sorting out all my Stargate/Contract problems, I had meetings concerning the FMA Act. Which of course translated itself in my mind into Fullmetal Alchemist . Then I went for lunch, down to the cafeteria. Where all the serving people were wearing blue gloves. I had 'two by two, hands of blue' running through my head for my entire break, but everyone survived without major incident.
After lunch was fairly uneventful - the only occurence of my fandoms was someone doing their best Sergant Scultz impersonation - 'I know Nuth-ing'. Some things will never go out of style :)
Anyone else ever have days like this?
