| | I clean office buildings once a week (gotta pay the bills), and I had a surprising, yet humorous, experience last night. I went in to one office and was dusting when I moved the chair just a slight bit and heared a Pfft -- then I saw a bazillion pink sparkly sprinkles hit me, the chair, and everything around the office. At first I freaked out thinking that I might have done something wrong. Then I saw it. The monofilament fishing line tied perfectly to the chair. The camera strap and folded paper and coffe cup carefully placed to conceal it out of view. The cardboard box setup connected to the line, waiting in anticipation for the owner of the office to be caught unaware. Even the trash can and recycling bin had been placed carefully away from the desk so that the cleaning crew (us) could clean the office without wrecking the booby trap surprise. Oh well. At least someone was completely surprised by it (me). My brother-in-law had to write two really nice, long notes -- one to the office ownder and one to the office contact to explain the situation. Needless to say, I was very impressed with how much thought and engineering went into the careful design and placement of the trap. I'll have to reverse engineer it some time. |
