Office Guy

I have been meaning to write about this dude, and today is finally the day since I'm not getting anything accomplished anyway.

Office guy is 27 years old, married for maybe a year, and he started here a few months ago. I'm thinking October. He is maybe the same height as me, maybe shorter. I'm not really sure. He has two dogs, and just got his wife a cat. He's the guy that is THE office guy that everyone knows. You know when people say 'oh, they'll be talking about it at the water cooler?' Well, he talks that talk. When it was going to be snowy, he was talking to everyone about the snow, and talking about leaving early, shoveling his walk, blah blah. When someone mentions the murders going on in the city (as an example), he knows all the details and repeats everything that was on the news. I don't know how one becomes THE office guy. I can't imagine you're born like that. He just doesn't have much of a personality because he's always so appropriate, and talks only of stupid tidbits that no one really cares about. He laughs at dumb jokes, and maybe he makes jokes, but they just aren't funny.

It took me a while to figure out what his deal was, but once I realized he was the office guy, I am happy to have found the solution. It's hard to explain in words this guy's deal. I guess he does talk about his home life a bit, but it's never anything good. Know what I mean? I talk about my home life, and it's always stupid, but I like to think I make it sound interesting, but the stuff he talks about just isn't. Poor office guy. I wonder what his wife is like AND I wonder what he talks about at home. How do all the oddballs find matches? hee hee.
