Something terrible is happening at work, not sure what to do

[Texashiker]

On my desk I have this candy jar that is about 14 inches tall and about 10 inches wide. This jar is made out of thick glass, maybe so thick that if someone goes postal, I could use the lid as a shield to block the bullets.

So anyway, the peppermints are starting to run out on the side of the jar nearest me and I am not sure what to do. I am having to stand up, and move the peppermints from the other side of the jar, to the side where I can reach them.

Just a few minutes ago I had to stand up, open the jar, move the keebler fudge strips, cheezeits and kashi granola bar out of the way to move the peppermints over.

How would ATOT handle this situation?

Only solution I can think of is to quit.

You have candy jars at work?
is this why we all think that Texans are super fatties?

 

[Dirigible]

Clearly, your area is losing gravity. The extra gravity further away from you is causing all the candy to fall to that side.

On the plus side, you're losing weight (thinking about mass is for pussies).

On the minus side, you'll soon lose all gravity and go spinning into the void.

I would fill the jar with M&Ms.

You dont?

That is caused by the 100+ temps 8 months out of the year.

I would fill the jar with M&Ms.

Preferably ones purchased on credit.

shouldn't you be sweating off all the fat, then?

You don't have to anwer that--I know what it's like back home. The climate forces you to stay inside, bathe in AC, shuffle from house to car, sit, and not move.

Why would you avoid keebler fudge strips? Do you hate America?

Last saturday the nature club I am a member of went on a field trip. The temps were around 101. About 30 miles north of my location in Lufkin, daytime temps hit 104 on sunday.

I felt like I could not drink enough water to keep cool.

Call IT and ask them to send someone over.

Get an intern. Paid intern if they do a good enough job.

Clearly this is a good reason to go postal yourself. When the cops arrest you after you've gone on your shooting spree you can tell them all about the uneven distribution of mints. And the cops will say, finally we get one with a legit reason to go postal. You know the other day the doughnut shop was all out of honey crullers, damn I was "this" close to putting a cap in her. I know how you feel man, I know how you feel.

Are you an overweight 52 year-old mother of 3?

:hmm:

:hmm:

I'm gathering clues; that describes the only people at my work that have candy jars. :hmm:

Commit suicide!

If I ever caught myself intentionally eating peppermints I hope I'd have the courage to kill myself. I sure wouldn't want to live like that.

Is it bulk candy? I mean, is the jar alternator-sized or smaller?

The candy jar is about 2 1/2 gallons, but the candy is bulk packages.

Fat Texans? All the girls in San Marcos were tan and fit as could be. Damn.

 

[torpid]

Give up; buy a new candy jar and a new bag of candy. Then eat the peppermints in your new jar of candy. It's not worth it to an ATOTer to stand up all that often with tight $500 jeans that we all wear.

Also, don't try the rotation move because that's a temporary fix and not an entire system that addresses the long-term issue.
