okay angie

i dont really want to take the time to decide on a memory of Roger B Neff so i decided to make a list of the first few things that pop into my mind

  • on my first day of work as a temp (remember thsoe days?) when he called the front desk from that "facility" in new mexico mr. panina recommended for his exhaustion i was amazed because i thought flavor flav was one of our clients. that was a lot more impressive in the 90's.
  • for 34 days straight in 2002 he called me "julio' and kept demanding a timeline on the executive bathroom retiling project. every day i told him i was a) named rob b) not technically a contractor c) i didnt even have a key to that bathroom d) i didnt even know there was a executive bathroom - i still haven't found it, and think he might have been imagining there was one since mr. rye mr panina and vic all use (or used) the same one as i do e) i have no idea how to tile anything anyway, as i have an arts degree. he always used to laugh knowingly at his error then tell me "if i dont see some progress soon, youll be back to picking tomatos faster than you can count to tres, amigo."
  • im not sure what body spray he uses, but i cant wear my contacts when hes in the office
  • speaking of flavor flav, whatever happend to that clock you used to wear roger? do you keep it in storage with the straw cowboy hat and those oversized JNCOs you used to wear on casual fridays (before mr rye cancelled those days after the Incident)
  • remember mary? she used to keep a voodoo doll of roger in her desk. It was pretty well made too. one day she told me that the hair on the doll was really rogers and that was why she knew it worked. i wonder what happened to her.

okay thats enough
