Let's Look on the Bright Side

Ten Good Things About Being Up To Your Eyeballs in Work

1> You get to do cool stuff like not bathe or brush your hair for a whole week.

2> People have higher tolerance for your poor hygiene and bad behavior (like one time, I totally got away with lobotomizing my officemate with a pencil just because he was annoying!)

3> You frighten little children and small animals without exerting any effort.

4> When you can’t do your laundry and you have less and less wearable clothes, your fashion imagination really kicks in (who says you can’t wear your high school uniform to the office?!)

5> Time flies when you’re having fun… and when you’re chasing deadlines! (especially when you’re having fun chasing deadlines)

6> You gain the ability to change night into day just by closing your eyes. I’ve done this many times myself; at night I just close my eyes for one second and when I open them again the sun is already high in the sky.. amazing!!

7> It gets really trippy when you can’t tell if you’re dreaming or if you’re awake.

8> You earn extra income when people mistake you for a roaming lunatic and offer you their spare change.

9> You’re eye bags grow so deep that you have two convenient, take-them-everywhere-with-you pouches for storing your pan-handled spare change and house keys.

10> My mom says back-breaking work builds character. Since moms know everything, this means working your behind off will make you the coolest person alive.
