Everyone's watching the game at work here. But then, they give everyone unlimited access to the Internet all the time.

My general manager came over from head office next door and asked why we weren't watching the game! Lol, you've never seen a shop of guys run for the computer faster.

Around these parts, that behaviour gets you folded up and locked in a broom closet for an hour or 2

whole office basically shut down for the game, 200+ people late for a lunch being put on by the director. Can't fire us all!

Downtown Calgary, lineups at 9:30 at most bars. Unless you had reservations, you were turned away.

Just got back to my office, drinking coffee for the rest of the afternoon....

At our table of 10, 8 kept going. I have meetings... with beer on my breath.

Who the F schedules meetings today?!
