Office cow maybe not but you are definitely someone's cow not matter how you slice it.
Knowing you, this will go in one ear and out the udder!
As the baker once said "A bun is the lowest form of humor".
I still think my scenario will play out just as I said, but onto the focus of the thread now.
So many responses... Wow I feel like xxxLinda
Can any of you think of a better animal description for office workers? We call you office cows just because of the herd mentality. I can sit on the patio at the local pub any given afternoon and watch the herd go. The men are the worst, Dark Pants, White Dress shirts, and a tie. Occasionly you might see a rebel and he will wear a coloured dress shirt.
I tried playing as an office cow and I didn't even last one day, but I did get laid so i call it a good day. lol
hmm.............Office Cow or trained animal entertaining people hoping to get a tidbit thrown at them.
I like to think that I am making them dance, pay me more and I will pay attention to you and make you feel important.
and my tidbit is 5 times what the average office cow makes.
Well as an "office cow" here, let me say, I don't get led, I lead. And I must say that being an office cow I don't really have to worry so much about my looks as much as I do my education, experience, worth ethics, and profession expertise. I can also climb the corporate ladder and do so knowing I got there because I worked hard, did a great job and deserved it. Also as an office cow, I have a great retirement pension where I won't have to worry about collecting social security or medicaid when retired. I also intermingle with people who are looking at me at a human level instead of just an object as had been when I had other jobs. I dunno, I guess for some....Office Cow just fits.
These are all great points.
Retirement isn't something I am too worried about. When things start sagging I will move on with my Condo, Car and large nest egg set aside so I can figure where I can fit in and play in the 9 - 5 world. Maybe I will take up welding, it would be a change to close things as oppposed to keep opening them up.
moooooove over
I'm a hiefer too then and I don't mind a bit
I love my desk , my office , my boss , and the view ain't bad either
Mind you there hasn't been enough fresh grass lately but spring is a comin' and as long as his hands are warm my boss can work on these teets
Seriously though , you OS sound like you need a hug , or a vacation .
Why all the bitterness ? In all actuality peoples jobs are just that , a job .
I'm glad you have a job you like . But please don't try to demean what I do for a living . . it's just so not cool
A vacation might be in order, I hear the snow in Whitefish is awesome maybe i will blow off work on the weekend and go.
I guess I am bitter but I didn't mean it as a personal attack on anyone, but reading it I can see why you think so.
I like only working three nights a week. I like sleeping in until noon. There is a lot more I hate but you can't make this kind of coin 9-5 (as long as you can stay off the drugs).
Girls like I don't get a lot of respect shown to us, especially from females so I don't have a great repertoire in dealing with the reality
little comments like Flower says to me all the time is what we expect. It is constantly a fight, we are the evil of society you know.
But hey we should all relax and let your husbands spend the Christmas bonus on me, I am eyeing a new Jeep
The Cow jokes are great btw
