So eons ago at a company was working for, we had a mouse problem. Every morning I would walk into my cube and would see this mouse scurry from someplace within my cube across the aisle and into a hole on the floor we had that led into the server room (don't ask - trust me you don't want to know why it was there)

at any rate..I emailed my boyfriend about it and here is a snip-it of the email exchange...

>> oh...speaking of GTE and rats chewing through t-1 lines...did i tell
>> you of the latest creature I've found scurring about...
>> there's this little mouse that runs back and forth from
>> somewhere in my cubicle (which is strange because there's little place
>> for the guy to hide) to the server room...where our servers and data
>> comms are...it's intriguing...

I would be freaking out if I see mice running around where I work. My cubicle would be cover with glue traps.

This probably isn't as funny here as it was in person, but we used to have this guy who worked for our company. He wasn't exactly the model of cleaniliness. Actually he was quite grubby to put it nicely.

Him and another employee were driving together in his car when the employee saw a mouse pop his little head out of the dashboard. The employee FREAKED out and the guy just shrugged his shoulders and said that the mouse had lived in his car for quite some time.

We called that guy Fieval until he left the company. Okay, it wasn't at all funny in writing but you would be laughing if you knew the people. :)

No humor at all it was funny. I can imagine the mouse sticking its head out of the AC vent...hehe.
