necessary backstory: her coworker just had their officemate's baby and got caught by her boyfriend trying to pass it off as his

  • J: read receipts make me happy in a really lame way
  • see also: hacking voicemail systems to get direct extensions
  • E: ahh, you're a cubicle drone now
  • do you have a labelmaker?
  • J: oh, you love your labelmaker, shut up
  • E: because that thing brings me the kind of joy usually reserved for new moms
  • "you can't possibly understand until you have one yourself"
  • J: but no, no label maker as of yet
  • i'm waiting til the time is right
  • when i'm a little more stable, financially
  • E: sure, and emotionally prepared
  • just so you know, mom once told me she wouldn't mind if i had a labelmaker before marriage
  • but she would really prefer it if i waited until things were legal
  • J: it's a personal decision
  • i'd at least like to be involved with a three-hole-punch i felt i could count on until i really start thinking about label makers.
  • E: well, as we learned from your coworkers, never lie about where you get your office supplies
  • because staples does NOT accept returns from office depot
