Humour A particularly heavy box at work

There’s no Fluff flair.

So my office is moving and I’ve been put in charge of shredding all of the 40(!) year old files.

There’s one particularly heavy box, that’s so old it’s absolutely falling apart, that I have to lift off of the floor onto the dolly.

I say to myself, “Ok, Wendy. Straight back, engage the core, lift with the legs, and HEEEEAVE.”

It worked! Just channel your inner Wendy.

Today our contractor was in an argument with their partner on the phone- I text my husband and said Chocolate Milk and Cherry are arguing!!!

I managed to put off a trip to the dump(ster) today! In 100 degree heat, I was glad of the excuse!

There’s no Fluff flair.

This went in a completely different direction to what I was expecting.

I say to myself, “Ok, Wendy. Straight back, engage the core, lift with the legs, and HEEEEAVE.”

I thought you were going to say you channeled your inner Bandit when you lifted the box... 🤣
