I decided that I needed a few days off and I realized that I had run out of
vacation time already. I figured the best way to get the boss to send me
home was to act a little crazy so he'd think I was burning out and give me
some time off.
I went into work early the other day and began hanging upside down from
the ceiling.
Just then one of my coworkers (she's blonde...it'll be important later)
came in and asked me what I was doing.
"Shh," I said, "I'm acting crazy to get a few days off.
I'm a light bulb."
A second later the boss walked by and asked me what I was doing.
"I'm a light bulb!" I exclaimed.
"You're going crazy," he said. "Take a few days off."
With that, I jumped down and started walking out. The blonde started
following me and the boss asked where she was going.
"I can't work in the dark," she said.
