My Ears are Bleeding

Today is *Mrs. Mary's music day so you know what that means, Ear Phones here I come!!! I usually like everyone else's day of music, because we all pretty much have the same taste, except Mrs. Mary's. She likes to play elevator music. Not only is it elevator music but she turns it all the way up, because she is in an office and she can't hear it very good in her office, so everyone else has to suffer. I mean really she shouldn't have a day, because she is in an office, with her own speakers for her computer. She can just listen to her own music in her office, but no she makes us suffer. The music that plays for everyone is pointing in our direction.

I usually get to work early before everyone else, except the boss, and I will start the music, because I like to have something to listen to in the morning, and then when everyone else gets in if it's their day they just change it no big deal. Well when it is Mrs. Mary's day I don't turn it on, because I hope that she will forget about the music and not turn it on. Well it didn't work today. About 9: 15 the music started!! At work we all use Instant messenger to talk to each other, and as soon as the music started I got like three instant messages! This is how they went down:
Me to *Kate.
Me: "Oh Crap"
Me: "Mrs. Mary's Music"
Me: "Ear Phones here I come"
Kate: "Hilarious"
Kate: "Hilarious"
Kate: "Okay that's loud"
Me: "wow, that is loud"
Kate: "I slowed it down one"
Me: " you SLOWED it down?"
Kate: "yeah"
Me: "How fast was it going? LOL"
Kate: "Lowered the Volume"
Kate: "Shut up"
Me: "HAHA"
At the same time I was having that conversation I was having another with *Travis.
Travis: "I left my headphones at home!!!!"
Travis: "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"
Me: "lol lol"
Travis: "I even did the fist pump at the sky, but you couldn't see that"
Me: "I was just telling Kate OH crap, Mrs. Mary's Music.
Travis: "This is like my Favorite CD"
Travis: :
Me: "I thought I saw this on your playlist"
Travis: "What are you talking about? This IS my playlist. LOL"

I really think that it is really funny how we all have pretty much the same reaction when her music starts. If I look around the room everyone has their earphones in. Well except Travis, because he forgot his. HAHA.

She cranks the music up so load that it is blaring us out, and we can't hear our own music in our earphones, so one of us will usually turn it down. Then in a few minutes Mrs. Mary will realize that she can't hear her music, and turn it back up. Then we turn it back down. It's a continuous cycle.

*Names have been changed to protect the innocent!!!

LOL!!! That is AWESOME. I wish we had instant messenger at work! We have to just use regular email. CURRENTLY, most of us have our own offices. So I am free to listen to Laura Ingraham, Rush, & Hannity LOUDLY in my own office. But we are moving into a new building in April 2009, & there will be four of us per office. That sucks! I guess I will have to keep my earphones handy! Poor Travis! I bet he won't forget them AGAIN!! :)

No, I don't think he will do that again. That really does suck that you go from having your own office to sharing an office. I wish I had my own office sometimes.

You know the real reason she turns her music up so loud? She knows you hate it and she's trying to force you to listen to it anyway. She sits in her office and does her evil little laugh every time she turns it up again. :o)

HAHA Ashley, That would be funny to see her doing that.
