Him: (in chat) Shush. I'm on my cell phone.
Me: (also in chat) Shushing commenced.
Him: Plus, if you whack me, I'll press charges.

Him: More shushing, please.

*Via IMs after I'd missed a mumbled comment as he walked by...

Me: Sorry, I didn't catch that. What did you just say to me? (and fyi your guest is in the lobby)

Be Excellent to Each Other!

Him: Why did that guy show up an hour early? Was that his mistake or ours?
Me: His mistake. He confirmed the correct time with me, then got it wrong anyway.
Him: As Keanu Reeves would put it... "Strange things are afoot at the Circle K."
Me: Did you really just go all Bill & Ted on me?
Him: Indeed I did.
Me: ..........very well, then.

Me: Hey. Don't forget to send me that event schedule you said you would send me earlier.
Him: Oh... uh... you think I forgot, don't you?
Me: Yes, I do.
Him: I'm just not even gonna comment, cuz I'm so insulted by that.
Me: Well, that's a pretty loud non-comment.
Him: ..................

They Sell WHAT at the WHERE?!!!

(Note: It took me quite a while to calm down from hysterical laughter, so I could type this one out. Enjoy!)

Me: *hugesigh* I'm exhausted. I wish SO hard that I had a hot tub.
Him: They sell them downstairs!
Me: They do?
Him: Yep!
Me: Where?
Him: At the cheesesteak place!
Me: They sell hot tubs at the cheesesteak place?!!!
Him: Heck yeah! They taste really good too!
Me: Are you hearing something else when I say hot tub?
Him: OH! I thought you said hot dog!
Both of us: BWAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!!!!!

Hit the Deck!!!

Him: (upon hearing the emergency warning siren they test every Tuesday at noon) Are we being attacked?
Me: Yes. Get under your desk.
Him: I dunno why they tell kids to do that. How could that do any good?
Me: *shrug* It's good for a laugh at least.
Him: It is?
Me: Well it would be to me if you did it.
Him: *sigh* I'm going to go get some lunch.
Me: Ok, but be careful. We're being attacked.

Just Admit You Like It

Him: Hey, I'm sending you a scheduling thing.
Me: How... unusual.
Him: Look, Snarky McSnarkerton...
Me: Oh, come on. How unentertaining would your days be if I wasn't Snarky McSnarkerton?
Him: I guess I'd just hafta find something else to fill that void.
Me: Ooo! Ooo! Like an office kitten?!
Him: *sigh*

Monday, June 23, 2014

I'm so proud! *sniffle*

Him: (to coworker "M") Where do you keep the extra kleenex boxes?
M: Under the counter next to the printers.
Him: (walking past the printer area into the kitchen) The counter in the kitchen?

2 Posts in 1 Day?! Bonus!

Him: Hey, could you show me how t... uhhh... nevermind. I just figured it out.
Me: What was it?
Him: A formatting thing. I thought I couldn't do it, but then I remembered how incredibly capable I am.
Me: Incredibly capable AND humble.
Him: Yes. I am tooootally humble. It's awesome.

That explains so much!

(emailing me while he's stuck on a long board call)

Him: Diet Coke please, and 8 blueberries. Thx.
Me: (after delivering snack) That was totally a request like my bestie's son would make.
Him: I'm a 4 year old at heart.

Thursday, June 12, 2014

I'm right. You're wro...FIRE!

Him: The CEO just told me a different address and meeting time than I see in the calendar item.
Me: The CEO is wrong. I've confirmed it with his administrator.
Him: Could you double-check anyway?
Me: Of course......... Ok, I've checked with both of them together. The info I gave you is correct, and the CEO apologized for his mistake.
Him: You do realize that if I show up to the wrong place at the wrong time tomorrow, I'm coming back here to light you on fire.
Me: You're gonna light me on fire?
Him: Yes. Assuming that's not illegal. Hm. Maybe I should check with HR. One sec............. darnit. Apparently, that's not ok.
Me: Definitely over the line.
Him: ........... barely.
Me: I don't think I like your tone, sir.

Monday, June 9, 2014

Happy Anniversary!

Him: Hey! How long have you been working with me?
Me: (huge grin) Five years yesterday, sir!
Him: Five years! Wow! That's astounding! Here! (handing me an oddly thick envelope)
Me: Wow! Thanks!
Him: (as I open it) Now, I know it's ridiculous, but this is apparently what happens when you try to order a Nordstrom gift card with a multiple-hundreds amount...



Me: Bwaaaaahahahahahahaaa! I love it. I could play solitaire with all these! Thank you!!!

Me: Well..... as long as YOU leave, that's fine.
Him: ........................

Wednesday, May 14, 2014

Too Slow, Chicken Marango!

Him: Hey! Which ones are our L.A. companies?
Me: Hm. Rit...
Him: (interrupting with company name)
Me: Yes, and also...
Him: (interrupting with next company name)
Me: Uh huh, and...
Him: (interrupting with last two company names)
Me: ............yep.
Him: Ok. Got it.
Me: Glad I could help.

Tuesday, May 13, 2014

Achoo?

Him: (strange almost sneeze-like noise)
Me: ...............Bllllllless you?
Him: ...............Thhhhhhank you?
Me: Heh.
Him: (strange not-quite-normal sneeze-ish noise again)
Me: Those are sneezes, aren't they?
Him: As far as you know.
Me: Ah... ninja sneezes.

CRASH!!!

Preface: This is the morning after Bossipoo(™) had been in an auto accident. His car was stopped on an offramp, and a woman rear-ended his SUV going full highway speed. (Miraculously, he's fine.)

Me: Oh, my god. I can't even convey how insanely relieved I am that you're OK. I had a totally irrational "what if I'd lost you" wig out last night.
Him: Thanks. I hate having those "what if I'd lost me" nights. ;) Seriously though. It all happened so fast. Really reminds you how fragile life is.
Me: Absolutely. Especially the life of someone who can make me laugh at a time like this. Ya dayum goofball. *warmfuzzy*
Him: *alsowarmfuzzy*

Wednesday, April 23, 2014

What? Huh? What? Huh? What?

Him: Here’s another business card for contact updates.
Me: Cool, thanks. (looking it over) Oh, I didn’t know he was from that company.
Him: (having not heard what I said) Was that english?
Me: Yes. (starting to repeat…)
Him: (starting to talk to coworker, then stopping to listen but missing it…) Wait. What?
Me: (starting again…)
Him: (starting to talk to coworker again, then stopping to listen but missing it again…) I can’t understand any of that. You should just stop talking.
Me: (to imaginary audience) Today the role of Bossipoo(™) will be played by Sarah.
Him: *eyeroll*

Friday, April 4, 2014

Sexeh Thang

Him: Are you getting sick?
Me: No. Why?
Him: You sound like you're getting sick.
Me: Oh, you mean my husky morning voice?
Him: Yeah. It sounds like a sicky thing.
Me: It's a sexy thing.
Him: Oh, is that what you're going for today? (quickly escaping to hallway)
Me: Heeeeeeeeeeeyyyyyy!!!

The Rubber-Room Tango?

Him: Hey, this guy is gonna call while I'm on this other call. I'm gonna need to be pulled away for it.
Me: One of us will come in and do an interpretive dance to indicate it's time.
Him: If you do an interpretive dance, I'm going to interpret it in a completely different way.
Me: Oh, yeah?
Him: Yeah. I'm gonna interpret it to mean I should call in the guys with straight jackets for you.

Friday, February 28, 2014

Geography Schmeography

Me: Is this company I'm scheduling local?
Him: Umm… I think they were local last time we saw them, but may have moved north.
Me: Any idea where?
Him: Yeah. Uhhh… maybe not too far from here… or maybe Canada. Umm… Yeah. Somewhere between here and Canada.
Me: ………………..thanks for the clarification.

Cookies & Denial

Him: (returning from lunch meeting) Here! I got you a cookie!
Me: Awwww... thanks, Bossipoo!
Him: ..... I refuse to respond to that name.
Me: That's fine. Now, what's IN the cookie?
Him: There's love in the cookie.
Me: You won't respond to Bossipoo, but you'll say there's love in the cookie?
Him: ............................
Me: Your silence does not count as a denial, y'know.
Him: .................... yes.

Friday, February 14, 2014

What's in a Name?

Him: What's this next guy's first name again?
Me: Donald. I think he goes by Don.
Him: Don? (with an 'ah' sound) Well, how do you know it's not Don? (with an 'oh' sound)
Me: ..........You're absolutely right, FrOHdrick FrONkenstEEn. It *could* be Don. (with an 'oh' sound)
Him: Thanks, AYgor!

Tuesday, February 11, 2014

Redundant much?

Me: Is the guy you just interviewed waiting to meet someone else? He's still in the main conference room, and we need to set it up for the board meeting.
Him: (distractedly) ........uh......uh... no. He's done. You can kick him out if you need to.
Me: Ok. Great. Thanks.

(5 minutes later)

Him: Hey! You know there's a board meeting starting soon. Could you please make sure someone gets the main conference room ready for that?
Me: ..........were you seriously THAT distracted before, or are you kidding with me?
Him: ...............whu?
Me: Oh jeez. Nevermind. Yes, the room will be ready. *eyeroll*

Thursday, February 6, 2014

Just go.

Him: I'm leaving in about an hour.

Him: You'll manage.............. BARELY, but you'll manage.
Me: Hm. Are you sure you don't wanna leave RIGHT NOW instead?

Tuesday, February 4, 2014

Dignity. Always dignity.

Him: Will we have time for a longer partner meeting next week? We're running out of time today, and there's a lot more to go over.
Me: Not really. You've got a board call directly before, and two full-team pitches directly after.
Him: Awwwwww phoooey!
Me: Excellent point. Well made.

Monday, February 3, 2014

Showdown

Me: FYI, I made some shifts in tomorrow's schedule to allow for that extra meeting we thought wouldn't fit, but it means you'll be a little back-to-back. Not a lot! Just a little!
Him: .....................
Me: Don't kill me.
Him: ..................... I cannot confirm I won't kill you.
Me: Well..... then you go right ahead and TRY to kill me.
Him: ..... I think I'll go into this meeting now.

Wednesday, January 29, 2014

The voices...

Me: Did you say something to me while I was in the kitchen?
Him: Nope.
Me: Oh. Thought I heard your voice.
Him: Nope. You've just gone crazy.
Me: And whose fault is that?
Him: ....no comment...

Friday, January 24, 2014

Blimey!

Him: I'm leaving early. You can too if you want.
Me: Thanks. I'm staying.

Me and several coworkers: ....*hysterical laughter*

Him: I don't wanna go into this meeting yet, so I'm gonna stand here and watch you eat noodles.

Time Off

Him: Hey, I'm not in tomorrow, so either take the day off, or give M the day off. Whoever stays should only do a half day.
Me: Ok. I already told M to take it off, and planned on doing so as well. No one else will be here. Do you still want one of us to come in?
Him: Oh! No. Stay away. Far far away.
Me: Aw man! I was also planning to hover near our doorway as my happy-fun day-off activity! You're such a kill joy.
Him: Well, ok… but only do it for half the day.

Games...

Him: Guess what I'm doing tonight?
Me: Do I really hafta guess?
Him: Yeah! I'll give you twenty questions to figure it out.
Me: Ok, my first question is what are you doing tonight?

Tuesday, November 12, 2013

Where's the trust?

Him: Did that scheduling email fall thru the cracks somehow?
Me: Not at all, oh ye of little faith.
Him: Hey! I only asked cuz he replied like he hadn't heard from you. Did he just miss it?
Me: Yep. He'll get to it shortly, I'm sure. People reply to emails everyday without getting thru the rest of their inbox first, sillypants.
Him: Ah. Well y'see, I just naturally assume everyone treats your emails with the highest possible priority.
Me: Nice save.

Lodging

Me: (complaining about my 2-bridge commute)
Him: You should get a place nextdoor.
Me: I could never afford that.
Him: Just get a 2 bedroom, and AirBnB the extra room.
Me: You ARE aware it isn't the safest thing for a single girl to have strangers in her living space on a semi-regular basis, right?
Him: I thought you knew 12 different ways to kill a man with your bare hands. No?
Me: -_-

Tuesday, October 1, 2013

I have that effect on some.

Me: Your 11am is running late due to accidents.
Him: Why are you causing so many accidents?
Me: I'm not causing the accidents!
Him: How do you know you're not? You didn't see them happen.
Me: So, do you think the drivers were distracted by dreams of me?
Him: Bwaaahahahahahaha!
Me: .......you could've laughed a little less readily on that one, bub.

Saturday, September 28, 2013

Wind beneath your what?

Me: Hey, this guy says he'll meet you for lunch "at his new place", but I don't see an address. Do you know where it is?
Him: Nope, but I'll figure it out in time.
Me: ..........you mean you'll have me scramble at the last minute to find out, don't you?
Him: Exactly! I'll figure it out in time.
Me: -_-

Friday, September 20, 2013

Phew!

Coworker: (to him) I wish I could've seen your face during that meeting.
Him: (to coworker) My face is exactly why he freaked out the next day.
Me: .....Yeah. Your face freaks me out almost every day.
Him: ..............NICE! That was a softball, and you hit a home run!
Me: .....uh, really? Is that sarcasm?
Him: No! Totally! I'd fire you for it, but it makes me laugh too much.
Me: ....................well, good.

Him: (verbally and purposely mumbled this time) ...MGTHIDNA!
Me: (delivering iPad) ....oooookay. Here y'gooo.

Tuesday, September 3, 2013

Zippin It!

Me: ................ Sorry, Coworker(tm). You're on your own.

Monday, August 26, 2013

Spellcheck

Him: When you're really mad, it's spelled P-I-S-S-E-D, right?
Me: If you're emailing someone else, correct. If you're emailing me it's spelled L-O-V-E.
Him: ...............um.
Me: I know. I even made mySELF wanna puke on that one.
Him: That's spelled P-U-K-E, btw.
Me: Yes it is. Thanks.

TADAAAA!!!!

Him: Can you figure out if I can get to/from this specific airport in Mexico on specific dates without ever spending more than 2 hours on layover anywhere?
Me: ......and while also balancing a spoon on your nose?
Him: .........shut up.

Friday, August 16, 2013

*stabstabstabstabSTAB*

Him: Hey, could you check to make sure the press release was sent to (name of third person he's asked about within last 10 minutes)?
Me: Yes. He was included. Are you going to ask me about many more people, or are you going to trust I covered everyone you asked me to? I keep having to back out of the task I'm working on to make these double/triple checks happen.
Him: Awwwwww. It sucks to hafta do your job, doesn't it?
Me: Not at all. It sucks to hafta STOP doing your job in order to prove to your boss you already did your previous job correctly.
Him: ..................fair enough.

(he hasn't asked me to confirm anyone since)

Peckish

Him: (referring to someone late to a mtg) What have you done with him?!
Me: Afternoon snack! He was delicious!
Him: You're not allowed to eat our CEOs!
Me: That wasn't on the rules list, now, was it?

Friday, August 9, 2013

Rules Schmules

Me: That CEO's been tough to get replies out of ever since I declined his invitation to go out dancing.
Him: Maybe you should've gone out dancing with him.
Me: Uh.... no.
Him: New rule! You should do anything the CEOs ask you to do.
Me: Dude, I'll come in there and stab you.
Him: Not doing that is *definitely* on the rule list.

Thursday, August 1, 2013

Vacay Mkay?

Him: I'm probably gonna be out from April 15-22 for Spring Break. Would you mind calendaring that for me?
Me: Well, I'll add it to the schedule, but I better not see any Bossipoo Gone Wild videos coming outta that.
Him: ........... I can't guarantee that.
Me: (shudder)

Tuesday, July 30, 2013

Focus?

Him: (sends me a senility joke while in a board mtg)
Me: Your meeting is riveting, I see.
Him: (responds with a zombie joke)
Me: Pay attention in class, or you get the dunce cap.
Him: I'm very good at multitasking.
Me: (gives up)

Tuesday, July 9, 2013

Wednesday, May 22, 2013

Don't forget the frosting?

Me: My mom is sending me texts from the road. She says there's a boy with a gun in his belt at 7-11, a brothel made to look like a gingerbread house at the truck stop, and an electronic road sign advertising call girls... but we CA folk are the weirdos, right? Yayyy mid-west!
Him: I love gingerbread brothels. Who wouldn't?

Him: How much do you want to bet?
Me: As much as he'll lend me. Would you mind asking?
Him: That might be awkward. So yes, I mind.
Me: You're so unsupportive. I'll bet you HE'D let me have an office kitten.
Him: I think YOU'D prefer being HIS office kitten.
Me: You may have a valid point.

Wednesday, April 10, 2013

Ook Ook

Me: It was actually me who devised the schedule you just fwded to me, but you're a good monkey for fwding things so religiously.
Him: A good monkey? I'm the best monkey! And you know it!
Me: I... uh...... yes. Yes, you are.

Wednesday, March 27, 2013

Friday, March 8, 2013

Sharing Is Caring

Him: As if.
Me: Drat.

Tuesday, March 5, 2013

Dumb is as dumb does.

Him: What the heck is up with that guy's assistant?!
Me: Dude! He's gone thru 3 in the last 2.5 yrs, and there's no way to be p.c. about it: they've all been dumber than a bag of hammers.
Him: Does a bag of hammers really ever exist? Seriously. Who would ever need a whole bag of hammers? What kind of crazy analogy is that?
Me: Pretty dumb, huh?
Him: ... I see what you did there.

Me: "You've asked that 3 times now, but here's the answer again."
Him: "Oh yeah. Thx. My mind is full, so I can't remember stuff."
Me: "You need a brainema."
Him: "See? Right there. I even forgot that was a word."

Him: "My ALL CAPS didn't work."
Me: "Sounds like a personal problem."
Him: "But I wanted to say YUM, not Yum."

I'll never stop asking!

Me: Scheduling favor/request... please let me move calendar events when they need rescheduling, rather than deleting them. I love that you try to save me work now and then, but I lose all the event details when the item is deleted.
Bossipoo: Yep! Makes sense.
Me: Coolio foolio.
*brief radio silence*
Me: Next request... office kitten?
Bossipoo: Not a chance.
Me: Curses!

NCC-1701

Me: You know your next pitch is here, yes?
Him: Just finishing a call.
Me: He has a Romulan haircut, btw. Just FYI.
Him: See, now I'm just gonna start laughing while I'm in there.
Me: Beware. He may be prone to vicious outbursts over his distain for humans. If I were you, I'd set phasers to ChillOutMan.
Him: You are SO not cool.

D'aaawwwwwwww!!!

Me: This new service I'm looking into seems to be infinitely more flexible and multi-platform compatible than our current service. Also, it's .99 per month, or $9.99 per year! Can I get it? Huh? Huh? Can I?
Him: Hm. I dunno. That's pretty steep, but I gueeeess I'll let you spend ten bucks. *sarcasticlook(tm)*
Me: Boosipoo? You realize that normal logic dictates I should dislike you, right? Why does it instead delight me so much when you're being a smartass?
Him: Because you're the Yin, and my wife is the Yang, and the universe is very strict about keeping a balance.
Me: .............. That's mildly creepy, moderately hilarious, and majorly sweet. You win today. :D

Me: Yer not the boss o' me!
Him: *sternlook(™)*
Me: ...when I'm on a plane!

And so it begins...

Bossipoo™and I have a frighteningly similar pithy/quirky sense of humor, that I thought it wise to catalog as many exchanges as my busy work day will allow me to capture.

We'll start today with a simple Bossipoo nonsensical quote...
"That's the problem with fingers, is that you hafta use them."
