Just a whole lot of babbling nonsense…

I think my new supervisor is starting to get frustrated with my coworkers. I’m holing up at my desk here with my head down low and Toto’s Africa blasting through my speakers, when I hear the supe making the classic mistake of asking a coworker who goes by the nickname of The Mouth a question….
