Ah, excellent. I've done those too because, you know, it could've happened that both my supervisor and I wanted to take the same day off. Someone else would need explicit instructions on how to put an address on an envelope and print it. "Explicit" is no exaggeration, either, these were people whose computer skills began and ended with hopping haplessly in front of a keyboard, flapping their hands about ineffectually and making soft, panicked "heebie-heebie-heebie" noises.
But yeah, I'm surprised at what an unholy appetite buses and trucks seem to have for office workers everywhere. I wonder why the news suppresses these stories? Would no one ever work in an office again if, in addition to all the well-known and stereotypical office bullshit, it was confirmed that 80% of dedicated office workers meet their grisly demise beneath the unforgiving wheels of a metropolitan transit system? Would society collapse into pockets of eco-domes and arcologies, the government completely unable to tax these self-sufficient societies, causing the military to crumble like a graham cracker and leaving our suddenly blissfully autonomous nation prey to the vagaries of any third-rate military dictatorship in the world? ...Maybe the news channels know what they're doing. I'm going to go throw my wallet at WCCO.
