For the last week at the day job there has been some redecorating going on. With redecorating comes workmen, and not the kind of workmen you’d prefer to see for eight to nine hours a day.

None of the guys look like this.
The bothersome thing was they seemed oblivious to the fact that they were working in occupied space. They had no qualms about shouting to each other from across the suite. They took heavy piles of carpet tiles and dropped them to the floor instead of placing them. They huddled around the glue-drying fan and had conversations at a level that had to exceed the already loud noise of the fan, with no regard to the fact that people like me had to concentrate on our jobs too. Then there came that point where I just had to leave, as in leave the building ~ I got a straight-on view of a giant plumber’s butt. All of the noise and chaos distracted me so much I could barely do my job, but I had to draw the line when there was a bad moon on the rise at 1:00 in the afternoon.

So appropriate is a phrase from the early ’80s…gag me with a spoon!
I really hope today is less cheeky, in all senses of the word.
I sure cracked a smile at both pictures for very different reasons! 😉 Good luck with the remodeling!
Thanks Lorna. I think the job is pretty well wrapped up now. If they’re back tomorrow it will only be for a little cleaning up. I can’t believe I survived it, especially those picturesque full moons!
DO you think they do it on purpose. Surely they can’t be that oblivious to all that butt hanging out!
Seems like it would be kind of breezy. Maybe they think they have something everyone wants to see? Why do we even try to explain it? Plumber’s crack will remain one of nature’s biggest mysteries
Ugh! Men really do think they are kings in this world, don’t they? With all the effort woman put in with plucking and sucking in and disguising “flaws” just to make ourselves “presentable”…it just amazes me to see men walk around proud of a big beer belly, oblivious to the disgust factor of an ass crack, just like they own the place! Great post, Sara…got my blood flowing this morning!
I, for one, know I would be mortified to know half of my butt was hanging out of the top of my pants. After what I’ve seen this week I’m always checking to make sure mine is tucked neatly away. It’s a good thing not all men walk around with themselves hanging out of their clothes. After this week I’ve got a craving for a man in a suit.
