In typical Mo fashion, everywhere we go Mo declares himself king. In this case, he was determined to be king of the beach. Luckily, it was a slightly gray day and the beach was pretty well deserted. So congratulations Mo. You are king of rocks, kelp, and driftwood.
We are Spoof and Speck. We work together in a job we hate, surrounded by crazy people. Now we share our insanity with you.

The Hutt has left the building!
Some part of us thought it would never happen, that the whole thing was a cruel prank. But it's true. They Hutt is gone and we couldn't be more thrilled.
Join us in a celebratory song.

I don't think that's how it works
If you've ever been any sort of boss, manager, or department head, you're probably familiar with the concept of delegating work (If this is a foreign concept to you, delegating is when you have too much work to do so you assign some of your tasks to an underling). Delegating work is a pretty useful system and one of the perks of being in charge. It is, however, an exclusively 1 to 1 system. Yet Shoes seems to think it is acceptable to delegate on someone else's behalf.
The story goes like this. We have new summer help arriving. They will be assigned to different departments. One will be working for Spoof. Yet in the email regarding the new staff, Shoes assigned Opie to train the new guy. Opie who, technically, works for Spoof. Spoof was, let's just say, less than pleased. Confronted with this, Shoes would only say "sometimes we have to delegate our tasks." We would like to know what gives Shoes the right to act on Spoof's behalf.
To Shoes, all we can say is:

It's Mo Monday!
Mo has, on multiple occasions, declared his intention to rule the entire world. To that end he's been trying to recruit a variety of animals to join his army. Most recently, this has meant sea creatures. We can only be glad that he doesn't know the difference between real animals and statues.

What a great boss
Imagine you are a boss. You are greeting your employees by name (probably because you got scolded for blatantly favoring certain ones). You don't immediately see one person. Do you:
a) go find said person and greet them to their face
or
b) yell "Good Morning employee X" across the building and hope said employee hears you
?

It's Mo Monday!
When your nemesis is an evil squirrel you often don't feel safe. Attacks can come from above, below, any direction really. You get the idea, though, that if you can get inside you'll be safe. Squirrels don't have apposable thumbs, so surely they can't open doors. Right?
Right?
We're not so sure anymore. Mo spent several hours recently examining door knobs. It's only a matter of time before he figures out some method of opening them. Then no one will be safe.

Did you just say that?
We'd like to introduce a new feature that will be appearing on here occasionally. We call it "Did you just say that?", where we list three things we've heard our coworkers say to patrons. Things you really shouldn't say.
Today's list actually all come from the same person.
1. The government is evil.
2. You're gross.
3. Then you wouldn't have anything to complain about.
This is how we imagine patrons responding:

It's Mo Monday!
Curiosity may have killed the cat, but it also trapped Mo. We were at a local restaurant that had counter seating featuring stools. These stools had a hole in the center. Mo is apparently to curious for his own good. He poked his head up through that hole and found himself quite stuck. We must admit we laughed at him a good long while before helping him out.

It's Mo Monday!
Mo sneaked along on our monthly bowling night. First, he was outraged when we told him he couldn't bowl without shoes and they don't make bowling shoes is squirrel sizes.
He raged about eating everyone in the place. He claimed that the lanes were his own personal snack bar. Luckily, the alley had these handy signs. And for all his faults, Mo can be kind of a stickler for following signs.
And nothing he could do was going to make them fit. |
No snacks today, Mo. |
