An office moment to remember

The most hilarious thing happened at work today. One of the toilets on the second floor overflowed and there was so much water that it ended up leaking through the ceiling. Now I'm not so mean that I thought that this was funny in & of itself. What made it funny was my co-workers reactions. Two people realized the toilet was overflowing so asked who they should tell so I got the receptionist to make a sign for the door and left a message on another co-worker's phone, because they are the one who handles the plumbing issues. But, in the mean time the water had gone through the ceiling and had started dripping onto the floor below. As people started to realize they jumped up and dragged the garbage can below to catch the drops. Everyone got up from their desks and stood around peering up at it, others jumped up and started yelling (or at least speaking LOUDLY) as they realized water was dripping next to them. Others ran upstairs to try to turn off the water to the toilet. Nobody was actually working except for me. My policy is to avoid doing anything other people flock to, like babies & demos as Zellers, and now water damage. So, I was working away and let everyone else deal with it. It was really funny watching from a distance (and avoiding the clean-up), and reminded me of The Office. It would make a really good episode. Moral of the story? Well, use a damn plunger when you plug up.
