The wife was in PT yesterday and I waited in the waiting. The ladies there other than the wife were talking about how often dogs go into heat and had that confused with the human menstrual cycle. Obviously, it's very different.
I worked on a technology that found its way into a "feminine hygiene product" so I had to learn about the fluid that was to be absorbed. I had some interesting lunch time conversations with female coworkers about the topic. I wonder if today my questions would have gotten me fired.
I did some bizarre things on the job back in the day. That is why I preferred to stay hidden "in the lab".
We once had a Director who was all about "celebrations". He concocted elaborate schemes to celebrate birthdays and holidays. They were having a Winter Soltice party next door in the conference room one December and none of us went. My boss came into my office very irate and told me I and my "guys" needed to come next door and participate. You were supposed to have brought some kind of hot dish. I infer not many participated.
I told my boss we had work to do and couldn't make it. He was quite annoyed with me. The Director was a total dufus. We despised him.
