Office Blues- Au Revoir Fineboy

and i now begin on a sad note........fineboy left yesterday after four months of meritorious servitude in the accounts department ..he's goin for his masters degree in the uk....the funny thing is we've only known ourselves for about a mth....but it felt longer...........

the office administrator comes to announce that there'd be a send-off thingy for fine boy.... we should all endeavour to b present(b4 nko? with all the free chops? who'd miss)..................then at about 3 in d afternoon we are all summoned to the confrence room....i get there wen almost every one's there n i notice a 'high table' has been created for fineboy with a vacant seat which i assume is for oga big boy( apparently oga does not fraternise with mere workers......hmm), but he has left d office....i want to quietly take my seat, then they all say "ah ah michelle ur the person to sit there(arent u fineboy's best friend?)i sit down and all sorts of insinuations start flying about "what city law firm has joined together let no man put asunder"........ then d citations begin........everyone seems to have nothin but praises for him.....i jus laugh inside and say if onlythey knew fineboy...........mr t(accountant) now launches into wat i'd call a total 'opilogue'(off point) citation about workin wit fine boy(in the process he starts yarnin about himself amidst all d shells)....wow... patience is indeed a virtue......
after all dis we get down to the most important item....'menu,menu,menu'.................then fineboy's presented with a parting gift(an additional month's salary....hmmmm....)....he thanks them all n d picture taking sessions begin......hope d yeye photographer's pics turn out well...............no more fineboy in the office(sob!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
