sometimes i confuse acceptable behavior at home with unacceptable behavior at work.
in preparation for an impending monster yawn, a production artist pushed back from his desk leaned back as far as his chair would allow. arms unfurled, eyes clamped shut, mouth opened wide.
standard protocol at home is to insert your finger in the open mouth and wait for the victim to unknowingly close the mouth and gag on the pranksters finger. usually hilarity ensues and the boys fall over in fits of laughter.
the gaping mouth looked huge to me, like i could fit my whole fist inside. the target was so great and so easy i forgot i was at work. instinctually my fingers curled into a fist, except for one, pointer. pointer stood straight and knew exactly what to do. he leapt forward and dove into the abyss.
contact with pointer and the closing mouth shocked me back to reality. sudden panic. realization i am standing at work with my finger in a co-workers mouth.
not good. soon expecting harassment charges to end my career.
