Large and In Charge

My boss left to India (pleasure, not business) for 4-6 weeks. It will probably be 4. He said possibly 6 if he manages to find a girl to marry, but her family can't get a wedding together in that short amount of time. He thinks the extra 2 weeks will be sufficient. I think he's nuts. (And, yes, they still do arranged marriages, but it's a bit different—he asked his family to find him a wife. Um, yeah. Cool.)

Guess who gets to play boss in his absence? Oh! You're so good at this game! Yup. Moi. It should be fun. So far it's been 2 days.

On Thursday my coworker stopped by my desk for the 3 o'clock time waster, "Wait," he asked, "Now that you're the boss does that mean I can't stop by and waste time here anymore?"

"Nah, go right ahead. Our boss does."

It's going to be an interesting month.
