All work in our office stops when there is A) a baby present B) food available, or C) a cute animal. In this case it was a not-so-cute animal. At least, not-so-cute to some. I think this little Black Racer has cute blue eyes.
In cliche’ fashion, all of the women in the office cowered while the men walked out to it to show no fear. There were calls for its execution, simply for being a snake. I’m just hoping people leave it alone.
Well if Jimmy Burdett had any say in the matter,that snake was smashed. He and Steve G. are either afraid of snakes, or just plain hate them for some reason.
Interestingly, today, a bunch of women from work in the car with me shoed a bug out the window instead of squashing it. I was quite surprised. The ensuing discussion revealed a split of opinion, even on spiders. I kept quiet, as the only member of the other gender present.
