A Real Life "Bat in the Office"

Many of you who share my sense of humor (humour for you Canadians) will know about the television show The Office. What you may not know is that I eerily have real-life similarities to Michael Scott, the head of the Scranton branch of the Dunder Mifflen Paper Co on the show. You know, things like wearing plaid with stripes, making fun of people in the office and generally thinking that people are the most important part of sales.

But the twilight zone crept up a notch today when I walked into our new offices this morning (formerly Google's offices in Boulder) to find a team of Collective Intellect commando's attempting to capture a lost bat in one of our conference rooms. We have video coming.....

I'm happy to report that the raid would have made Columbian anti-FARC agents proud and the the little bugger was safely transported to our outdoor deck without any incidents involving getting the bat stuck in a ladies hair-doo.

Well done Nick & Ricardo!

Unfortunately, this story makes my role in the office comparable to that of Dwight Shrewt - http://youtube.com/watch?v=ON0l0KWgucc. In reality, however, we all know I'm a little more Jim Halpert.
