Office Confessions

While I’m not the one who fucked with your office chair, your experience has brought to mind some petty office crimes for which I have yet to repent. Although, having said that, I think ‘crime’ is too harsh a word. Perhaps, “prank” is better.

Anyway, now that these things are in the forefront of my mind, I feel I must confess.

There may have been a time or two when I unplugged several computer monitors. I was right in thinking it would take a good 30 minutes or more for the owners of said computers to figure out the simple problem and it made my morning quite amusing.

Then there was the time when rather than merely unplugging computer monitors, I swapped their cords for the one sitting next to it. You see, there was a long table of computers sitting side by side in the training room. I merely swapped the cords and plugged them in so that when you sat in front of one, you had to view the monitor next to you to see what you were doing and vice versa. That too was quite entertaining. You’d be surprised how long it took to figure out such a simple problem!

Lastly, there may have been a time when I had to stop in on a weekend to pick up some files and my husband was with me. It was a Saturday and upon finding no one in the office, we decided to have a bit of fun. I may have stripped down to my red lace bra and panties and posed for some pictures on the boss’s desk. There also may have been a few pictures taken of me at the receptionist’s desk. Then there was the one where I stripped to my panties and pretended to photocopy my bra (as seen below). What I can’t post is the picture of me standing completely nude next to the copy machine, facing the camera.

Me at copier after editing out the important bits! ; )

It was quite fun for both of us, especially because we kept thinking we heard someone walking down the hall, but it turned out to be our imagination. We were quite nervous after all. We were also worried there might be video cameras in the office, but since no one ever said anything and it’s been several years since the incident, we clearly didn’t have to worry.

Whew! I feel so much better now!

Thank you, Hassan S. Ali for sharing your story and reminding me of these things. I may not have confessed these office “pranks” had you not reminded me with your story.

Now I have a clean conscience! (Well, for the most part anyway.)

THANK YOU for taking the time to read my words.
