WARNING: this is a useless post. You've been warned.
Its past midnight but I can't sleep despite not being able to sleep last night. I'm with the graveyard shift but there happens to be a scheduled office drill today that I was not invited but rather, I was being mandated to attend.
Still, I managed to attend to the office drill and of course I was late. I placed two toothpicks between my eyelids to prevent them from closing and dropped some Visine to get the red out in sixty seconds. Gee it did not help. A lesson not to believe everything you see on television.
Everybody noticed
when I arrived; it's like walking in an isle when you're getting married. It's
a feeling that is so inspiring until the facilitator started to mention my mistakes
and failures in the office. I felt I was pushed into a tub full of soap water.
I consider it to be one of my most embarrassing moments. "I should have left
earlier", I said it to myself, if I had some clothes to put on. But because I
forgot to get my laundry yesterday which I believed my uniform was with it. To
my surprise when I came home, it turned out to be placed right inside my
closet. At that time, I had a feeling that my moronic side is starting to
overpower me.
Then lunch came I'm still wet with soap all over my body and I thought everybody forgot about my tardiness but it seems I was wrong for I was again called to lead the prayer. I don't have that priestly look; it's more of a punishment for being late. I tried to hide, not that I do not want to say the prayer but I don't want them to notice my eyes. So no more bath soap, this time it I was soaked with detergent.
The office drill didn't go along smoothly as planned. Office drill is not a drill about digging something in the office or preventing fire accident but it was more of like a protocol drill to freshen up our team and getting the respective jobs done. The result was a successful failure, we totally sucked. It was expected anyway; otherwise we won't be having that sort of drill.
The afternoon came; the toothpicks between my eyelids were removed not because I'm not sleepy anymore but because they broke. Apparently, they can no longer handle the weight of my eyelids. So I got these 3 sachets of Nescafe instant coffee 3-in-1 mix in a single mug and drank it. It was so effective that up until now at 3AM, I'm still awake.
