Printer Guy

- dating

All the boys and the dating, if nothing else, provide me with a neverending supply of stories to entertain my flatmate, friends and readers. And random people on the street - I tend to overshare.

But occasionally, I have a serious conversation about finding a partner, and at one of these my flatmate asked whether there weren’t any people at my work I might like, since the whole online dating business is getting ridiculous. I dismissed the idea as too risky - if things didn’t work out it might get awkward in the office. But my mind must have gone through the list of people at work I believe to be single and attractive and then a few days later it happened.

I was working away, focusing on my spreadsheets, when I suddenly realised that I had developed a crush on my colleague. And I wasn’t even talking to him at that moment. This is a nice chap who sits near the printer and whenever anyone prints something he starts a chat.

Now, for the life of me, I just can’t think of any more documents that need printing!
