an email i received from the receptionist:

Ways to Spend Time

Method #1:

Step 1) Email **** (receptionist's name withdrawn) and ask her to print up an envelope

Step 2) Grab the letter you need to mail

Step 3) Walk over to the elevator

Step 4) Press elevator button

Step 5) Wait for elevator

Step 6) Ride elevator to 1st floor

Step 7) Walk over to **** and ask her to print up the envelope you just emailed her about

Step 8) Repeat step 3

Step 9) Repeat step 4

Step 10) Repeat step 5

Step 11) Repeat step 6 (only in opposite direction)

Step 12) Walk to desk

Step 13) Email ***** and ask her to print up an envelope

Step 14) Repeat steps 2-12 cause you were too stupid to grab both letters when you came down the first time.

Estimated time usage: 10-15 minutes (times vary depending on your luck with the elevator).

Method #2:

Step 1) Do what everyone else does and place the letters in the outgoing mailbox when you come downstairs to get your mail/go home/go to lunch/etc.

Estimated time usage: 10-15 seconds (times vary depending on your ability to remember where the outgoing mailbox is located).
