Except for his evil eye of course. He travels a lot and so he gets his own rubber band and doorknob exercise system and even has a portable hair dryer. For his hair! What a good boss! One time the doorknob beat him up but that is another story.</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0in">Today he decided to buy lunch for everyone. It was great except I didn't get anything. They gave me more work instead. Which is good, since my typewriter needs stuff to stay busy and not waste chip cycles. I hear they are expensive and I don't want to get fired already. Plus we got a free lunch today.</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0in">I think someone was messing with me again since I have good equipment and come up with all the cutting edge inventions. You should see my list! Only it's private and I can't show you the unmentionables. They might show themselves when the time is right. Maybe I can do some calculations on my typewriter to decide.</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0in">I had to reboot the typewriter earlier and the 'Any' key is missing again so I need to look out for who did this. Why would they take that key? I need it for the database access. It was probably that shifty lazy eye. I'll bet he has his own private doorknob exercise system too.</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0in">What a good day!</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0in"> <p style="margin-bottom: 0in"><a href="http://www.philstewart.org/2006/11/office-hobo-broken-stuff/"><< NEXT Office Hobo - Broken Stuff</a></p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0in"><a href="http://www.philstewart.org/2006/10/office-hobo-making-deals/">>> PREVIOUS Office Hobo - Making Deals</a></p> </div> <p align="right"> <a href="http://www.stumbleupon.com/submit?url=http://www.philstewart.org/blog.php/2006/11/office-hobo-free-lunch/&title=Office Hobo - Free Lunch"><img src="/images/linkicons/stumbleit.gif" border='0' alt='Stumble This Post'></a> <a href="http://digg.com/submit?phase=3&url=http://www.philstewart.org/blog.php/2006/11/office-hobo-free-lunch/" target="_blank" title="Add Story to DiggIt!"><img alt='DiggIt!' border='0' src='http://www.philstewart.org/images/linkicons/digg.png'/></a> <a href='http://del.icio.us/post?url=http://www.philstewart.org/blog.php/2006/11/office-hobo-free-lunch/&title=Office Hobo - Free Lunch' target='_blank' title='Add Story to Del.icio.us'><img alt='Del.icio.us' border='0' src='http://www.philstewart.org/images/linkicons/delicious.png'/></a> <a href='http://myweb2.search.yahoo.com/myresults/bookmarklet?u=http://www.philstewart.org/blog.php/2006/11/office-hobo-free-lunch/&=Office Hobo - Free Lunch' target='_blank' title='Add Story to Yahoo web'><img alt='Yahoo' border='0' src='http://www.philstewart.org/images/linkicons/yahoo.png'/></a> <a href='http://reddit.com/submit?url=http://www.philstewart.org/blog.php/2006/11/office-hobo-free-lunch/&title=Office Hobo - Free Lunch' target='_blank' title='Add Story to Reddit'><img alt='Reddit' border='0' src='http://www.philstewart.org/images/linkicons/reddit.gif'/></a> <a href='http://www.newsvine.com/_tools/seed&save?u=http://www.philstewart.org/blog.php/2006/11/office-hobo-free-lunch/&h=Office Hobo - Free Lunch' target='_blank' title='Add Story to Newsvine'><img alt='Newsvine' border='0' src='http://www.philstewart.org/images/linkicons/newsvine.png'/></a> <a href='http://www.technorati.com/cosmos/search.html?url=http://www.philstewart.org/blog.php/2006/11/office-hobo-free-lunch/' target='_blank' title='Add Story to Technorati'><img alt='Technorati' border='0' src='http://www.philstewart.org/images/linkicons/technorati.png'/></a> </p> <p class="info">Posted in <a href="http://www.philstewart.org/blog.php/category/office-hobo-funny-stories/" title="View all posts in Office Hobo - Funny Stories" rel="category tag">Office Hobo - Funny Stories</a>, <a href="http://www.philstewart.org/blog.php/category/phils-blog/" title="View all posts in Phil's Blog" rel="category tag">Phil's Blog</a> <strong>|</strong> <img src="http://www.philstewart.org/wp-content/themes/phil-theme/img/comments.gif" alt="" /> </p> </div> <!-- You can start editing here. --> <!-- If comments are closed. --> <p class="nocomments">Comments are closed.</p> <p align="center"> </p> </div> <div class="sidenav"> <h1>Support PhilStewart.org</h1> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.philstewart.org/donate-to-philstewart-org/">Donate</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.philstewart.org/stinky-hobo-stories/">Stinky Hobo Stories</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.philstewart.org/stinky-hobo-return-of-the-jikkom/">Return of the Jikkom</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.philstewart.org/hobo-name-generator/">Hobo Name Generator</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.philstewart.org/contact.php">Contact Phil Stewart</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.philstewart.org/blog.php">Phil's Blog</a></li> </ul> <br> <div align=center> <strong><a href="http://www.bluehost.com/track/nitroshock/pblogtext"><img src="/images/bluehost.png" border="0">BlueHost.com</a></strong> was voted best support in <em>2004, 2005 & 2006</em>!
