So...(names are changed/shortened for security--seriously)
Friday was an interesting day. Booger decided she wanted payback, because while she was doing her alternate sterilizer position in packout--K and L thought it would be an appropriate time to tell her she's incompetent. She was angry. I would be, too. Since we have two lines doing 5 liters...she's all by herself pushing around carts which are about 600 lbs, and sweating up a storm. I feel bad for her. Anyway, on with the story!! Friday morning (4 pm for me), Booger picked me up for work, cuz I was being too lazy to get out of bed. In her car she says, "Try this," and hands me a chocolate chip cookie. I eat it, and in the middle of it, was a tiny ball of gristle. It took me a while to chew it...I thought I was breaking my teeth! I asked her why she put sand in the cookies...and she laughed. She said it wasn't sand. I then asked, "What is it?" She replied, "Well...I'm going to give them to K and L for being mean to me last night....they all have kitty litter in the middle!!" I was grossed out! Not really, though. She then said, "I'll give you a dollar for every one you eat..." LOL. Being hard up for lunch money, I ate three kitty litter cookies. :) At least my breath was fresh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well, I brought in the Scoop Away-riddled chocolate chip cookies, and left a note to K and L--which said, "Left over cookies. Enjoy." Anyway, I guess later on the evening...one of the mix technicians ate a cookie. Let's call him K2. Well...somehow, K2 figured out there was Fresh Step (or some brand of kitty litter) in the cookies...and got 'sick.' Actually, K2 was just so incredibly pissed off, he refused to finish his work, went to the big boss, complained, and got a chain reaction of things going on. Booger was called in the office. K was on the phone with Dept Mgr, and they came to the conclusion that Booger was trying to poison employees. (A joke gone wayyyyyyyyyy too far...all because K2 didn't like what he ate...) So, the Dept Mgr calls the Plant Mgr, and Booger almost got fired. We still don't know if she's going to have a job next week. We're all on edge about that. Here's the kicker. The low level bosses both had 3 cookies, I had a total of 4 cookies, Shamu had 2 cookies, Marky Mark had one, a couple of others had one...and K2 was the only one to get sick?? I don't know what happened between K2, and Booger...but, it was nothing more than a personal vendetta to try and get her fired. It might work. Pray for her she doesn't lose her job. I'm on her side on this.
Time for my praise! I found out I got an alternate job in the plant. So, when they need me, I shall be a custodian. It makes more money, and is a LOT more freedom than working on an assembly line like I do already. Like I said, I only do it once a month, if that, however, I'm a lot happier.
kk...that's my message. LOL. *Christian Hugs* Darrel

Actually, the story made me think of the old Saturday night skit, "Litter Critters". Kids playing with "wet" litter, shaping it into little animals, and loving on them and kissing them. Great stuff!
On a serious side, I hope your friend doesn't get fired. But I have to say that if I was a boss of someone who did that, I'd have a hard time not firing her! I hope she apologizes to everyone who ate one of those!! And I really hope it was clean litter!!!!
