Of Drinks and Editors

Co-worker:  How’s That Big Project That Makes Us Want to Die going on your end?

Me:  A lot slower now that Our Boss has become involved.  This is not a good system; it should not require this many rounds of edits.

Co-worker:  Have you started on XYZ?

Me:  No, I haven’t started proofing XYZ..  I’ve spent all day on ABC proofing her proof of my proof from last week!

Co-worker:  You’ll be up to 100 proof in no time, and you look like you need it!
