Extreme Chia

So, last week, our Creative Services department moved to a leased space downstairs, seperate from the rest of the Focus on the Family Canada offices. Other than the designers, most of us were in our own offices, seperated by walls and doors. Now living contently in our little cubicle farm downstairs, we try to be quiet, respect one another’s space and email more than talk so we don’t distract one another.

The following conversation began with emails, and turned into a confused jumble of cubicle-jumping banter:

Extreme Chia 

Sharon’s email: It’s movie and lunch day on Friday! Does anyone have a preference where we get our food from?  Meghan has suggested wraps.  Do you like this idea, or are there any other suggestions? Thanks. Subby’s email: Wraps… is that like pitas? ‘Cuz I loves me some pitas! Anika’s email: Last time we got wraps mine had a hair in it, so maybe not from the same place? Jim’s email: I love wraps. Wraps are my friend…an excellent and healthy choice. Jim’s email #2: Sharon got a hair!? No fair! Meg’s email: No! ANIKA got the hair. Sheesh! Lucky…K well we got them from the place beside Fatburger last time, didn’t we? What’s the place by the Wired Monk over by Wendy’s…? Anika’s email #2: If we order from Pita Hair Pit, I will bring my own lunch and leave you all the hair  Jim’s email #3: You’re so fussy… Subby’s email #2: Extreme Pita — EXTREME PITA!!! I’d like a hair, hummus and goat cheese on sourdough, please… Meghan (verbally): Which one is the one with the one that gave us hair last time?  Subby: The Pita Pit. Let’s go with Extreme Pita. Meghan: Ya, maybe they’ll have some extreme hair. You know, for Halloween and all. Subby: Ya, those aren’t sprouts you’re eating – that’s hair! Meghan: Chia Pet hair… Subby: Extreme Chia!

    2. Anika has always had something against Pita Pit and i’m sure it’s not b/c of the hair. i suspect she made that story up. ;)
    3. keep the transcriptions coming!!

    Wow, this certainly looks different from before!

    Hope you found a pita place without the hair.

  3. Sharon Said:

    As far as I know, it was a hair-free lunch today. ;)

  4. Shari Said:

    You guys are too funny! ;-)

    I have a confession. I didn’t want to say anything at the time (and ruin all of our lunches in the process), but I seriously did find a hair in my pita on Friday. I’m serious. I tried to convince myself that it was MY hair, but I’m pretty sure it wasn’t. I was too hungry, though, so I tore off that area of my pita and chomped away with my eyes closed, trying not to think of wiry brown hairs. ICK!!! Pitas are now banned forever!
