My work BFF is moving to a different team and my heart is broken.<\/p>\n
Aren\u2019t you happy for her?<\/p>\n
Yes. I am super excited, and it is a fantastic move for her! But she sits next to me now and I love her and next week she won\u2019t be there anymore. She’ll be over a mile away.<\/p>\n
You will talk to her all the time. You can IM each other all the gossip.<\/p>\n
I feel like an abandoned spouse.<\/p>\n
There are way worse things happening at work right now that you can freak out over.<\/p>\n
The other upheaval at work is scary and it’s also something I am totally fretting about in my own quiet way, but this is an emotional work disaster. That is much worse.<\/p>\n
Have you been crying at work again?<\/p>\n
No. Yes. Maybe a little. We both did. And I learned that she is a Taurus. That explains why she is my work BFF.<\/p>\n
Uh, it does?<\/p>\n
Totally. Because I am a Scorpio.<\/p>\n
Which means?<\/p>\n
Since we are astrological opposites, we have a great synergy in which we can TOTALLY handle all of each other’s weird shit without batting an eyelash.<\/p>\n
Such as?<\/p>\n
None of your business.<\/p>\n
I thought opposites would tend to butt heads…<\/p>\n
No, but OMG MAYBE WE WILL NOW THAT WE WILL POTENTIALLY HAVE DIFFERENT WORK GOALS!!!<\/p>\n
Seriously?<\/p>\n
Nah. I was being melodramatic. We’ll still have very similar goals. Don’t roll your eyes at me.<\/p>\n
I can’t help it.<\/p>\n
It’s involuntary?<\/p>\n
No, you’re being irrational. I thought you were all science based. Astrology is total garbage.<\/p>\n
Oh, I know it is.<\/p>\n
But you still believe it in this case?<\/p>\n
Uh. Not exactly. I just believe that I am a total Scorpio which is the best sign, and that Taurus is the second best sign.<\/p>\n
Because?<\/p>\n
Just..because.<\/p>\n
It’s about sex, isn’t it.<\/p>\n
Sex, power, money and death. But ewwww not at the same time! At least not the death part.<\/p>\n
Of course not. Weirdo.<\/p>\n
Creep.<\/p>\n
