Friday v.1.0

This has been an eventful morning already, and it's only 10 after 9. Eesh. By eventful, I mean there has been one frustrating/upsetting event and then some fun internet surfing. The following is an update on the Grabby Flower Lady:

"Okay. For all my moaning and whining, I am pretty patient and kind with
people at work. The lady I told you about earlier just came past and
said 'Oh, I was hoping you weren't here.'
'What? Why'
'Because I was going to steal one of your tulips. You moved them.'
'You can't have one. I told you that earlier. They were a gift for me.
Please leave them alone.'
'But you have so many. Just one?'
'No. Do not take one of my flowers. Would you like it if someone came
and stole a gift that was given to you?'"
.....
I understand that a lot of residents here don't get many visitors,
cards, phone calls, etc. I also understand that they can start to feel
pretty lonely and sad because of that. And while I do feel badly, and
try to chit chat with them whenever I can or help them out, this can
only go so far. I'm sorry you don't have any flowers in your room.
That doesn't mean you can just try to steal things from other people!
I don't know what else to do. Guess I'll have to move them again
because I'm afraid if I leave my desk she'll come by to take one, and
bring them home tonight. It's nice that one grabby person can ruin what
was very nice for everyone.
