Office Lady Rip Lip



When she's introduced on five, episode 23 ("Michael Scott Paper Company"), Erin goes by Kelly until she tells temporary manager Charles Miner to use her middle name in order to cause less confusion in the office and avoid mix-ups with Kelly Kapoor.


If the gesture was done simply out of courtesy to her new boss, it seems strange that she continues to go by her middle name for the rest of her stay on the show, even though it is reasonable to assume that she would have preferred to go by her first name outside of the office.

Throughout the episode, Michael wants to say goodbye to Pam but doesn't know when she'll return to the office. She ends up making it to the airport in time to see him, but she seems to catch up to him when he's already through security and on his way to his gate.


"Ken Kwapis, the director, walked into the production office and asked if anyone would like to be in the background of a scene," Fischer recalled. "And those two women came and sat there for that couple of hours. They were so giddy."


When discussing Season 2, Episode 21, titled "Conflict Resolution," Fischer and Kinsey dished on some utterly delightful background details. The first is that the various plaques hanging around the office feature the names of real people from the crew.


Maxillofacial surgeons are oral surgeons are the same thing. Training involves oral and maxillofacial surgery but some surgeons limit their practice to oral surgery and office-based procedures while others prefer more hospital-based procedures.


I look around the office: pole lamps on their sides too tall for anywhere but the Sistine Chapel, a Budweiser clock stuck at 6:30, a bowl of wax fruit melted into a mutant purple lump, a coffee table with sawed-off legs, a mattress with yellow stains leaning against the wall and lampshades with yellow burns in the corner, plumbing fixtures corroded beyond recognition on the filing cabinet, bedrails layered with rust, a shoebox full of old locks and twisted keys, a decade of ragged telephone books stacked on a broken air conditioner that occupies the only window in the office. Nothing is discarded unless it hops in a trash can and finds its way up the stairs.


If you are an office-goer and your place of work is in or around Gulshan area, then it will be a great idea to lunch out in a great and neat place like Khushboo with your friends or colleagues. Khushboo offers delicious and authentic Bangladeshi and Chinese foods for their customers. You can either dine in or take out. The place also provides catering services for their consumers.


The place has been tastefully decorated to make eating more enjoyable for the food-lovers. The lay out of tables and cutlery are pleasant indeed. Khushboo also arranges office parties, wedding receptions and birthday parties.


It is, like so much else in the workplace, a man/woman thing. The new breed of female managers might find it easy to pick up the traditionally male trait of bawling people out but it will always be tricky for women, cruelly governed by emotions and hormones, to remain as stony-faced as male colleagues while a barrage of abuse is hurled their way. Some craven sisters use tears to strategic effect but most of us are more familiar with the horror of realising you're about to emit an involuntary sob in the boss's office.


What can I say about this night? That Queens rolls over like a snoring fat lady, in a shift of crumbling lace, and lays herself wide open, weeping in the arms of her dreams? Anyone could walk right in for a free show. The rooftops glow beneath us, pillows dusted in white. Roads curl up and draw their sheets over their heads. The white city is a bed brushed smooth by the sky, which rushes overhead in a river, moon and cloudy stars tossing on currents of wind. Every water tower, every ledge or sill or branch, every clothesline and antenna and each power wire is sugared with the same bright ice.


The streets of downtown Yangon glimmered in the morning sun, washed bright from eight weeks of nonstop rain since the end of June. Grass burst from cracks in the sidewalk, and moss painted the walls of the buildings down Pyay Road a velvety green. Bo Htet Aung reflected that if nostalgia were a color, it would glow that same shade of green. The green that had tinted the front of his office building since its days as an interrogation center for the Japanese during the Occupation, and seeped now across the plaster of its interior walls, the grass in the center courtyard, the turned teak railings in the balconies, and the ink in the pens on his desk. Not all the pens were green, of course. In a separate cup sat his red markers with their dizzying fumes and fat slashes. He had gone through a new one each week for the last twenty years. How he was going to miss them. 2ff7e9595c
