silly silly plantman

Reception is funny: So, girl from Peter the Plantman comes 'round and asks if there's anyway she can get into the Hearing Room (where they conduct securities violations Hearings), hehe. (right away I'm a little amused). Because, you see there's some plants in there that need watering, and it's been a couple weeks, and with all those Hearings going on, those plants are parched. So she tells me that "Sarah" has let her in before. Now, I don't know which Sarah this is, so I call my Supervisor (SUPER Visor!, charge!!), "Hi Angie, the girl that water's the plants is asking about getting into the Hearing room because there's some plants in there that need watering. She tells me that a Sarah has let her in before, do you know which Sarah this would be.." She tells me it's Sarah Hembree, so I scroll down the list and find Hembree... but I gotta leave her a voicemail, so I explain to her the scenario. "Hi Sarah, this is Serena at reception, Michelle from Peter the Plantman is here and she'd like to get into the HearingRoom to water some [naughty plants in there] plants in there, I understand you've let her in before so if you get this message in the next 5 minutes, maybe you could come down to reception. see, funny.

Comments:
hmmm, those 5 hours must've been getting to me. Oh Parallel Universe (where you're really tired - thanks to Jordan for that clarification).. heheh. This story isn't funny at all. It's bureaucracy at it's finest though. Or maybe not at all.
 
more please.
