It Was Nuts
My office is near a number of trees, and I often have birds fly into the window that is about 16 inches from my right arm. I also have squirrels come up to my window and peep in. It’s really weird having a squirrel checking over your shoulder to make sure you are correctly encumbering future charges, but such is life.
Recently, apparently the squirrels have been coming into the office through the lunch/conference room windows. The windows on both sides of the lunchference room are kept open, because there is no a/c in there. Yes, mini-training and long meetings in that room suck during the summer. So anyway, this morning a coworker and I were talking outside the lunchference room, and a second coworker trudged in past us. Suddenly we hear a loud “aaauuuuuurgggghhhhhhhHHH!!” and we see him run out. There was a frantic squirrel who had come in and gotten lost in the room! We didn’t really want to corner it, in case it was rabid, so we tried to direct it to the open window. It took about a minute, but finally it left with a loud squeak.
Of course we all joked that the the squirrel had come to check up on the second coworker, and that the squirrel’s budget better be done by this afternoon.

This is no laughing matter. Be afraid, be very afraid:
