When bears cave to the pressure

I know that when you read these stories about the Bank of No Forks you think we’re either:

A) Insane

B) The worst employees in the WORLD

C) Totally lying.

I’ll tell you the absolute truth. Dont’ I always? All three of the above assessments are reasonable, but none

of them are true. Well, insane is debatable, but our stories are ALWAYS true. Also we get ALL our work done and our customers love us.

Still, all of the above adjectives are going to run through your mind when I relate today’s events.

Remember how we have an Italian panda bear named Carlo? Well, that damned bear was drunk today. Drunk, I tell you. We were all sitting at the table in the center of the room doing our current jigsaw puzzle and we let him sit with us. Normally he’s a nice bear and a joy to have around. But lately he’s been hiding puzzle pieces and calling people names, which is wholly uncalled for.

Today was the last straw. He was so damn drunk he was falling out of his chair. We haven’t figured out which one of us is going to claim him as a dependant and get him into rehab, but enough is enough.
