I Just Work Here: a new column from @RexHuppke → rexworkshere.tumblr.com

rexworkshere:

Welcome to the official fan page of the “I Just Work Here” column, a Chicago Tribune workplace column that, interestingly enough, has yet to be printed. Yes, this is a Facebook fan page for something that doesn’t quite yet exist. But it will. Soon. I promise.

The column will debut on Tuesday,…

I hate evite!

It wouldnt let me say how many people I was rsvping for from my iPhone. And couldn’t add to my calendar. Is there no other way to invite people to things that we must keep using this awful, unusable site? They’ve had 3 and a half years to get this to work on smartphones.

Am I the only one who sees this?

Harold Camping now says the Rapture will occur on Oct. 21.

So mark your calendars:

6/1-10/21 Collect donations to Camping ministry so Rapture date can be advertised

9/21 Put up billboards reminding people of the Rapture

10/21 Rapture

10/22 Jokes about how the Rapture didn’t happen, endure ridicule

10/23 Jokes die down

10/24 Count the millions from last failed prediction (thanks, suckers!)

10/25 Predict Rapture on new date

11/1 Begin collecting money to advertise new Rapture date

Lather, rinse, repeat.

I have an intern.

This should be interesting. What should I make him do?

Yesterday on Facebook: “Rapture? Ha! What a fool.”

Today: “My horoscope says My husband will be a Gemini.”

Hey, guys! Jesus just called and apologized for yesterday.

He’d like to reschedule— does July 12th work for everyone? No? The 19th maybe?

I’m not sure what the point of predicting the end of the world is— it’s the one thing you’ll never get to say “I told you so” about.

And really, what else is there?

New Mayor
  • Me: So we have a new mayor now.
  • Taylor: We do? Who is it?
  • [silence in the room]
  • Me: Rahm. The inauguration is today.
  • Taylor: Oh, I thought you meant there was a new mayor of our office on Foursquare.
