Office flooded - week off

[Mike Gayner]

Just got a call from my boss - our office was flooded over the weekend. I not have a paid week off while it's cleaned up. What should I do with my week?

Wow, I wish we'd get a week off if something like that happened. We'd still have to work, they'd probably just station us in another office or something. Heck, power goes out for a whole day, we still have to be there even if we can't do work.

Set up a rig to flood the office again in a week. Another week off!!!

Keep the poor poorer?

We had a similar problem when someone got lost and used the female restroom for the first time in our research facility, turns out they did not properly install it ten years ago and it flooded a few offices.

Did an American contractor handle the construction and/or maintenance of your office building? Is that why it really flooded?

Relax and brace yourself for the backlog of work you'll have to do.

You can read about American building techniques that prevent such mishaps, then go on and tell about them to your Kiwi friends.

Did your boss tell this to any other employees or just you?

American buildings don't flood?

American buildings don't flood?

Other than aircraft-induced incidents, American buildings are quite resilient.

Don't you mean, "other than Mossad-induced incidents, American buildings are quite resilient."

Told you to keep the sheep herd off your office floor, but no. See, they all peed and shitted together and now your office is flooded.

Hopefully your mom will be able to get all the water out of your basement.
