I've been adopted.


day.... creepy Lexmark Technician.

Why is it that most embarrassing moments happen in front of an audience?

The Lexmark technician showed up today to install the imaging unit and activate the staple function on printer.

He looked like a muppet.

Frazzled from the start, he showed up in office asking help him find the units as they were shipped earlier in the week and he was unable locate them.

They weren't that hard find, but it led painfully awkward small talk while I secretly wanted die. I learned about his 2 year old car with 200,000 miles on it. I learned that he was single but was just a family man without the family. I learned that he had an allergy rayon.

I laughed and said he'd better keep his distance, entire outfit was made of Rayon.

At the moment I thought I could take no more, he was done. He thanked me profusely for helping him find the imaging unit and continued talk while I barely listened and halfheartedly said a few "Ok, no problems".

Little did I know Boss #2 was actively listening from the office next door and the moment he walked of the offices she appeared.

Boss #2 - You're collecting a following.

- OMG! Did you witness all that??

Boss #2 - Yes, I did. I had chuckle at your responses. He might be the ....

- Um.... Nope. I'm fairly certain he is not.

What does this have do with being adopted?

Let tell you....

So, 45 minutes later the Lexmark technician showed up in office door, again. I was talking with Boss #1 and the technician said , "I've adopted you as signing buddy because you're so nice."

The moment he walked away, Boss #2 appeared of nowhere.

Boss #2 - So, he's adopting you now.

- Where did you come from?!?

Boss #2 - I'm everywhere.

Me - I think I'll stick being an orphan.

    you definitely create a story

    thanks for sharing

    made me think of this one

    Anni B Sweet - "Missing a Stranger"

    Why I believe in somebody I’ve never known and I’ve never met?
    Why do I feel I’m loosing somebody every single day?
    Mmm… who can it be?
    Why do I feel I’m loving someboy that I’ve never seen?
    Why do I feel I’m waiting for a stranger when I’m off to sleep?
    Mmm… is it somebody close to me?
    Is it somebody close to me?
    Is it somebody…?

    But remember that the world is a funny place
    Where things don’t matter as much as it seems
    And in the end, time kills love and loneliness
    So why shoud we care before time arrives?

    Mmm… who can it be?
    Why do I feel I’m lovng somebody I’ve never seen?
    Why do I feel I’m waiting for a stranger when I’m off to sleep?
    Mmm… is it somebody close to me?
    Is it somebody close to me?
    Is it somebody…?
All of our lives are a story.... It just depends on how we choose to see it. I prefer to see mine as an experience, something to share.

    That's... an amusing story. It's going to be a saga with him now, right? 🤔
Probably not.... My post started "New day, New Lexmark technician". The printer maintenance and repair is outsourced. I think they just send whoever is available.
