Welcome to work, Chud.

I rolled up to work this morning to discover the most delightful birthday surprise!

But my favorite part was:

A HOMEMADE goat piñata with accompanying blame stick. And yes, it screams when you move or hit it.

(pardon my vertical video)

In summary, @trillian you are the best and we are all completely impressed with the goat.

So awesome! Nice work @trillian. How did the other building inhabitants take it? Or are they used to you guys?

- @sammydog01 100 above the door, so it looks like it’s the HQ, not the Dallas offices.

- @narfcake They have a suite number so I figured there were others around somewhere. Maybe not.

- @sammydog01 With warehouses like the one Mediocre is in, they’re built as one huge structure (lower build costs) and subdivided into smaller 100k+ sq.ft. spaces. Neighboring suites are hundreds of feet away, if not more.

I’m surprised to see that most of the balloons survived the night. There were supposed to be more banners and streamers, but the wind made it impossible to install them by myself. I was afraid that the MEH letter balloons would be GWTW. Sadly, one of the Irk balloons escaped, and is probably in Oklahoma by now. And I am so glad that the goat wasn’t attacked by a pack of roving bobcats. Thought for sure the smell of the haggis inside would lure predators.

- @Barney Remember back in the day when I was confused and I despised purple? I look back on those days with shame and disdain.
