Lost and Found - Screws

One of the few things I have learnt at my workplace is never to tell your colleague that work is getting on your nerves and the fact that you are losing your screws because of it. You cannot imagine to what extent your colleague would go all out to solve your problem. Obviously, I learnt this lesson after actually experiencing the same.

It was just like any other day at work, where my volatile memory was working at its best and I uttered the same to my colleague and blamed it on the work pressure. Unfortunately, I also told him that all this was causing me to lose a couple of screws. :-D

After saying so, the next day, when I arrived at my desk, I noticed a shiny metal object placed right next to the keyboard. Believe it or not, it was a gleaming screw!!!

I was not very sure how to react. I walked to my colleague's desk and gave a questioning look (I tried to raise one eyebrow but yet again I failed). And all I got back was a cheeky smile from him and I saw a lot more similar screws on his desk.

I went back to my desk, quite amused. I am just glad that the screw was a shiny one and not some rusty old one. :-D

Have a look at the screw for yourself...
