WLBOTT, The Gaping Maw of Hell, and Home Repairs (part II of II)

At WLBOTT HQ, we had our own version of the Gaping Maw of Hell.

In the employee break-room/kitchenette, an overly zealous employee ripped the front plate off the utensil drawer.

Environmental Services got right on the issue. Within 72 hours they arrived, equipped with a variety of gorilla glues and weighted cans.

According to various YouTube videos, the preferred glue compression solution is sauerkraut and refried beans.

There was an initial miscommunication. When weighting down the glued area, the sauerkraut and refried beans should remain in the unopened can.


Sally T. Intern inspects the repair.

Sally signs off on the repairs, but requests first-dibs on the sauerkraut.


WLBOTT Employee Break Room

One of the many perks of working at WLBOTT (part of our total compensation package) is that the employees get free salt and pepper packets in the break room (in season). A microwave is available @ 75¢ for the first 30 seconds.

Elder G suggested the following break room enhancement: A Corporate ‘Inspiration’ Wall: Posters say things like, “Happiness is Overrated” and “Be Grateful for What You Have (or Else).” There’s also an HR-approved chart that explains why breaks longer than 15 minutes could cause “career realignment.”
