As reported earlier, I, Office Knight, have taken a new job. We* are so pleased with our new job because we get to think important finance thoughts all day which we have loved doing ever since we learned that smart financial moves=more money for Chinese food takeout (our favorite).
We are also especially delighted that our new job, while technically a Wall Street position, does not resemble the dry and cutthroat Wall Street of the movies. In fact, during our work day, we have been invited to office karaoke parties, bake sales, author readings and ice cream socials. We feel that we are actually attending a really fun middle school.
On Thursday, however, our office bliss was crushed. We had attended a lunch and had carefully saved our cookie in a plastic lunchbox which we placed in the office refrigerator. We didn’t put our name on it because we did not want to look foolish in our Wall Street job. Hours later, we returned to find that the cookie had been gobbled up by one of our esteemed colleagues. We are still considering launching an investigation or hanging a note in said fridge to warn potential thieves.
Beware of crossing Office Knight.
*I’ve elected to use the “royal we” as inspired by our dear friend La Gringa

The royal "we" - Because it makes us seem all that much more ridiculous!!!

Oh, and there is that awesome classic episode of Friends where someone eats Ross's sandwich at work, and he has a meltdown and has to go for anger management counseling. Let that be a warning to you, young Office Knight!
