Called into the office...

So, I get to work this morning and my boss asks me to “step into his office for a minute.” Uh-oh alarms go off. And then he asks me if I’ve ever read Ringworld by Larry Niven. I haven’t, so of course I say no. waits for derisive hooting to stop

He picks up a copy of it that he has on his desk (hardcover even) and says he hasn’t either so he ordered it from his mail-order book club and they sent two copies and he wanted to give the extra to someone who would appreciate it.

I like my boss.

I like your boss too. :slight_smile:

Damn. Is he hiring fledgling microbiologists with a few computer skills, perchance?

Nope. Sorry, Smeghead. You can come over and look and my copy someday though. If you’re good, I might even give you a discount on the admission.
