Would an attempted robbery go here?

I didn't know they made steel-toed pumps for when office staff need to go onto the production floors.

Neither did I. I hope they have cute styles. #usemoargoogle, #doesitcomeinsateen?

EDIT: good one Gravekeeper! (...where's sheldon??)

There are things I love about Texas laws.

Being able to legally defend yourself being one of them.

Clubbed a would-be robber like a baby harp seal with your fists when some jerkoff snatches your phone? Not a problem.

I love the stories where the would be snatcher ended up with his nards in his throat after his 'victim' kicked them there...quite hard.

I had steel toes cowboy boots, wellies in leather, sneakers, loafers and pumps =) I might have a pair of the sneakers left in a box at my moms house. I used to wear the sneakers out to bars when my band played. They were great for getting the drunks to leave me alone between sets.

What did another coworker say? "You know he probably beat himself up to get out of work early, right? Now I'm going to have to stay late!"

I don't wanna be a dick or nothing like that, but this guy's 'tarded.

Why would you pummel yourself with your own fists, rip your own shirt, and spill your own blood just to get out of working, when you can just pick up the phone and call yourself out sick? Or just come up with some excuse on the fly and hope it's accepted.

Dickish co-worker is dickish. Also stupid.

[Kristev]

A classic moron. How crass of the co-worker. Assault is seldom something one merely fakes to get out of work. Period.

[Becks]

Your whiny coworker IS a fucking asshole. The lack of sympathy on his part astounds me. It's almost a shame he isn't the one that tried to steal the phone...

My thoughts exactly!!

That leads to all sorts of horrible ideas for the playlist:

Lollipop (Candyman) by Aqua...but I'm weird like that.

Watch Liar Liar, my friend.

[Stryker One]

Well, there are a lot of them....

My God, it's full of stars.

Uh, sorry. According to the doctor, those aren't "stars". But don't worry, there's an ointment for that.

Also, I can't believe no one mentioned this

Who's Bob Seiger?

[ShootMePlease]

Who's Bob Seiger?

You ARE kidding ? Right ?

Bob Seger is only one of the most awesome singer / songwriters ever.

YouTube him. You will like it.

[Kristev]

Are you kidding? He's incredible.

[Andara Bledin]

I saw him in concert back in '96. What a show.

^-.-^

[BeenThereDoneThat]

If only my favorite "oldies" station didn't play Night Moves so much...he has so many other good songs that don't get nearly as much airplay.

In oh-so-slight defense of dickish coworker, iphone-coworker does try to leave early a bit. But so does dickish coworker.

It's like high school all over again, right down to bumping into people you used to know at a different school! Dickish coworker is about my age (early 30s) but generally acts like an immature 15 year old; iphone-beating-coworker is in his mid-late 20s (but generally "acts his age").
