You know you are in for an interesting day when you are the person in the office to find the massive water leak. It also helps knowing that you are going to be the only one in the office all day.
Good thing is the office is a city owned building.
“Yoooohoooo! Maintenance please.”
Glad it was making a noise!
I guess there are some good things about this. First, it happened in the middle of the week. Can’t imagine what we would have walked into if it had happened over the weekend.
Also, it is just the water heater. No busted pipes or anything like that so it should be an easy fix. The keyword here is “SHOULD”.
On another note, I am fairly accident prone. When I found the leak, my hands were full of water bottles that I was taking to the fridge when I heard the noise. The light was off so I didn’t notice the puddle on the floor until I stepped in it and heard the noise that made.
So, of course I start rushing around trying to figure out who I should call cause the boss is out of the office today and Co-Vid has everybody else working from home. You should know, there are only 4 of us total.
Once I got the call in to maintenance I went about my usual morning routine of heating up my poptart. I got them on the paper towel and somehow or another, when I turned to put the wrapper in the trash, I kind hyperextended my knee just a little.
I blame it on the adrenaline that kind of kicked in when from the leak. Needless to say I am not always the calmest under pressure. This I blame on the anxiety.
