WORK
Really busy preparing for the impending audit. It starts a week from Monday. No brain function beyond work. And then I had this email come to me and it made all clear to me. I am not certain who wrote this but it is so true. Cannot give credit as I am uncertain who author is.
HEALTH ALERT — DANGEROUS NEW VIRUS
There is a dangerous virus being passed around electronically, orally, and by hand.
This virus is called Weary-Overload-Recreation-Killer (WORK). If you receive WORK from any of your colleagues, your boss, or anyone else via any means DO NOT TOUCH IT. This virus will wipe out your private life completely!!
If you should come into contact with WORK, put your jacket on and take two good friends to the nearest grocery store. Purchase the antidote known as Work-Isolating-Neutralizer-Extract (WINE) or Bothersome-Employer-Elimination-Rebooter (BEER). Take the antidote repeatedly until WORK has been completely eliminated from your system.
You should forward this warning to 5 friends. If you do not have 5 friends, you have already been infected and WORK is controlling your life.
Work is just killing me. How about you? I miss ya! And you! You too. Yes you…

that virus infestation is deeply entrenched in my system. starting up a new project and kick offs are always stressful and busy… i don’t think BEER and WINE will help me, i need the Super Life Enabling Exorcisor (of) Pathogens (SLEEP) and lots of it!!
SA: And SLEEP has to be healthier too.
Good one.

You can kill this virus by having this antigent called, “BOHCHAP”.
Bohcap is a Hokkien (err, dialect spoken in the province of Fujian in China) word widely used in Malaysia and Singapore to indicate the “I don’t care” attitude.
Hee hee.. if you have BOCHAP, WORK canot infect you.
SA: Interesting. You know the cure, yet you do not apply it.
October 10th, 2007 at 12:40 am
actually the right grammar is
If you BOCHAP, WORK cannot infect you.
October 10th, 2007 at 12:40 am
the right grammar is supposed to be
If you Bochap, WORK cannot infect you.

hello, chiwi’s husband here - thought I’d finally drop you a line!
WINE and BEER are also excellent cures for sports losses. In generous doses.
I’ve always read your comments on chiwi’s blog, and thought I’d butt in on your relationship!
nice blog mate!
SA: Welcome to my blog. I visited you once before I think. Thanks for coming by. Barbecue crisps and pretzels are good with sports too.

Hey, I found another cure for WORK.
SA: Okay. Will do.
October 10th, 2007 at 5:37 am
I so have this virus. *sad* I need the cure and I need it fast!
October 10th, 2007 at 5:46 am
Yep, this explains all my issues at the moment. It’s a hard virus to shake off, though, or at least that’s been my experience.
October 10th, 2007 at 10:41 am
Take care, and may things get better.
October 10th, 2007 at 11:03 am
