I Pity the Foos

At work, one of my big important projects is turning the former CEO's office into an employee lounge. I bought the most fabulous cream vintage sectional, new tables from West Elm, and various other fun things. For a final touch, I'm trying to track down a foosball table on Craigslist. I know absolutely nothing about foosball tables so I asked some of the boys at the office to help.

The following emails went around this morning. Some of the names have been changed to protect the hilarious.

There are wooden handles missing on some of the pieces.

Those aren’t missing handles, Einstein ... they are the other side of the poles. Thanks for coming out, though.

If someone does something to piss me off in a dream, I’m usually mad at them in real life for at least a week. Wens, after your crazy surprise hillbilly wedding the other night, you might not want to talk to me for a while.
