When I got to work I could smell something funny and realized that there was a carbon monoxide leak in the building. I went downstairs to investigate and found that all the buildings had been evacuated except for mine because the alarm didn't go off. I went back upstairs to tell everyone to leave, but no supervisors were at work so no one would leave the building. I went to my co-worker Anna's desk and started asking her lots of questions but she was being very vague and wouldn't answer them. I couldn't figure out what was going on until another co-worker, Duane, walked by and told me that Anna had quit but she didn't want me to know. I convinced Anna to leave the building and walk around with me. During the walk, I started asking her lots of specific questions about the future. Finally I cracked her and she said "Fine, I didn't want you to know, but I got a new job." I asked when she was leaving and she said "I'm not telling, and I won't tell you where I'm going either." She got in her car and drove away.

Crazy co-workers
My co-worker Brent called me up and told me that he needed some help because he was going on a big date the next day. He asked if I would come on the date with them to make sure that he didn't mess it up. I said that I would, and then he said that he wanted me to coach him the day before so that he knew what to say, so I needed to play in a golf outing with him in Ottumwa. I was getting ready to head to Ottumwa when I realized that my wedding was the next day so I had a few things to take care of. By the time I got to Ottumwa, the golf outing was almost over, so Brent decided that he should just go to a bar in Des Moines while I gave him advice. As soon as we got to the bar, he immediately got food poisoning and had to go home. After I dropped him off at home, I went back to the bar where my family had arrived for the wedding and wanted to give me a fancy bridal shower. I told them all that it would have to wait because I had to go to work.
