The Phone, it Rings

The semester is over, and I’m starting to work at the office again. While not a cubicle labyrinth, there are still the typical office perils. Phones constantly ring, the printer runs out of paper, and the four people that work here constantly fight over the cd player.

I’ve been employed to be the nameless voice that greets and redirects callers. I fix the printer and the network should either break down. I put labels on envelopes, stuff manila folders, and grab pizza and coffee from down the street. To my horror, I have become the office bitch. I’m hoping to not stay here long.

In the meantime, however, I am readying a manuscript of five poems to submit to a literary magazine. I’ll keep you posted if I get published!
