Quick! What Rhymes With “Pepto Bismol”?
I work in a small engineering office with six others, although only two were there when this happened. If things are quiet and no one is on the phone, it’s normal for someone to whistle a bit or maybe start quietly singing to themselves. No one minds.
It was getting late in the afternoon, and I think my coworker needed to hit his silly quota for the day, to the tune of a song from a certain musical about a wannabe nun from Austria.
Coworker #1: *Singing* “How do you solve a problem like diarrhoea?”
I burst out laughing.
Coworker #1: “You like that, then, [My Name]?”
Me: “Brilliant! If they put that on in the West End, that show would run and run!”
[Coworker #1] and [Coworker #2] responded with a mix of laughing and groaning.
