What role do you think you play in the AW Water Cooler?

I'm a dinosaur, but I want to be a floozy

Based in that list, I guess I'd be a chitchat artist, but another look and I'd say those are all the reasons to go to the cooler. Uh, that and because you were thirsty of course.

Sign me up! Floozy, Gossip, Security Guard and you too Brown Noser (nothing like a little pointless flattery) - gather round! Waste my time in style and I'll put you all on my Christmas list.

It can "see" others in the list . . . but it's hard to pick out one for myself. I'll have to think on that a bit.

I think we can all make a good guess who the water cooler Casanova is?

Sadly, these are probably the ones I appear to be to others at AW, The Hall Monitor or the Drama Queen, but if it were a real life water cooler I'd probably be called The Floozy. ;)

That's a very good point, Denise, regarding the role other people perceive that we play. I've added it to my original post :)

I was thinking more like . . . stew meat.

That is rabbit discrimination. Or, or some kind of threat! I am contacting the SPCA. I have rights!

Hmm...I suppose I'd be the college intern, since to everyone here, I'm young and in experienced in comparison, but I'm aiming to be the floozy. Everyone knows I'm just joking, right? I have no floozy aspirations. You don't believe me! I'm really not a floozy, really!

I think we have our first (but certainly not our last) volunteer for Drama Queen.

I think that qualifies you for Hall Monitor.

And for a barbeque!

The Potential Serial Killer of the Brown Nosing, Caffeine Junky, Know-It-All Drama Queen! And he knows…ops that’s Drama Queen, I thought it said Drag Queen. Well I guess that takes Spooky off the hook. :D

:hi: Spooky - miss me?

Look at that face. <-----
Do you have something against nice soft, cuddly bunny rabbits?

And I don't taste good.

I once worked in a place that had my desk right next to the water cooler. Since I didn't fall under the "I want to hear your crap" category, potential serial killer was danged close at the time.

Here though? Depending on my mood I'm either chit chat artist or drama queen. I'm workin' on being a big fish in a small pond though. :D

What's really odd is the idea of a lucky rabbit's foot. I mean, it didn't help the rabbit that much, did it?

I'm the floozy...and proud of it!

But I'm hoping to move up to The Porno Purveyor at some point...just how to do it without getting in trouble with Jenna? Maybe I'll just save that title for at my real job! :)

You don't have Mr. Wonderful in the list so I can't choose one for me.
