Working is funny.

sometimes.
Tommy says (3:07 PM):
I like to view it as a video game! Everything in life is funnier if you pretend it is a video game.
Like, everytime a new helpdesk request comes in, it is a quest! Sometimes I have to battle evil viruses, sometimes I have to find a quest item and loot it, sometimes I have to do other miscellaneous tasks, like solve puzzles!
Amanda says (3:07 PM):
If my job were a video game, it would be pong.
Tommy says (3:08 PM):
Pong is pretty sweet.
Amanda says (3:08 PM):
Not when you play it 35 hours a week for 4 years lol.
I want a job with quests and instances.
Tommy says (3:08 PM):
I don’t have any instances in my job
Tommy says (3:09 PM):
Or at least, not usually.
Amanda says (3:09 PM):
Hmmm The hot chick is like a pit boss that you have to sex to defeat. If you could get a date with her, that could be like running an instance.
Tommy says (3:10 PM):
That’s WAY over my level, though.
Amanda says (3:12 PM):
Well, it might be a red quest now but if you either get a really good group with some higher levels or just do some smaller quests to gain xp, I think you can do it.
Tommy says (3:30 PM):
I don’t know any higher levels that will group with me
Amanda says (3:30 PM):
Hmm You need to make a guild.
Tommy says (3:30 PM):
Okay!
Amanda says (3:31 PM):
What will you call your guild?
Tommy says (3:32 PM):
Hmmmm
How about “Only Hot Chicks (and Tommy)”?
Amanda says (3:33 PM):
I dunno if hot chicks will want to join a guild whose purpose is to find a way for you to trick hot chicks into having sex with you.
Tommy says (3:33 PM):
I think they’ll be all over that shit.
Amanda says (3:34 PM):
What will your tabard look like?
Tommy says (3:34 PM):
It will just have silhouettes of hot girls all over it!
