Winner: "Suzanne!?"
This entry comes to us from Suzanne M. Bracken, CAP, from Chicago, IL.

It's a miracle they even managed to open the office at all.
This entry comes to us from Charisse Fleming, CPS. All our admin wants is to take a nice long lunch, but it is only mere seconds before things fall apart: the interns are watching movies, files are being thrown to the floor, the coffee is out, the delivery guy is stealing all the candy, and one executive, left alone in the copy room, finds himself in quite a bind.
