| This is Norbert. I snuck this picture while he was sleeping. |
Day one: Rob ( the
boss’ minion/studio photog) comes into my office with the Studio’s newest
employee. I am introduced to
Norbert. OH good, I think, maybe
someone I can finally beat at cards. The
first meeting was a little stiff but hey that can happen. I chalked it up to him being overwhelmed in
the presence of a studio big wig. Rob
plugs in Norbert’s docking station, whatever that is, and Norbert wiggles his
little butt up next to it and beeps a couple time. Rob leaves and Norbert Starts winking at me
with a creepy orange eye. Well I let him
know right away I was seeing Edgar, and that
is when it went downhill. His
blinking orange light soon turned to green, I assume from jealousy. Although I really can’t blame him, having to
work in such close proximity to not only a strikingly beautiful woman, but also
a high ranking member of the organization,
I can see why he would be attracted. I digress… Here is a short video of Norbert wandering around aimlessly. Sorry for the poor camera work... he really creeps me out.
Norbert did not move for the rest of the day. I asked him several times if he would like to
play cards, but he ignored me. His light
went from blinking green to solid green.
I’m sure that means something, but he would not talk to me. Then suddenly without warning the next
afternoon he plays this stupid little tune jumps off his docking station and pirouettes…
then he starts this god awful racquet
and starts wandering all over the office.
I asked him several times if I could help him find something but he just
ignores me. Typical man won’t get
directions to save their life. Anyway he
is bumping into everything.. I think he needs glasses… when he heads towards me. Man!! If I had skin it would have been crawling. He creeped me out. He circled all around me and bumped in to me
several times… and then, OMG I still can’t believe this… he spun around and
backed up onto my feet!!! EWWWWW!!! I
think he wanted to spoon or something. Then he stops and starts beeping at me, like
it is some kind of cleaning dude love song. Well thank goodness Rob heard it and came and
rescued me. Rob sent Norbert on his way
and consoled me. Rob helped me find a
place where Norbert could not reach me.
Who would have guessed the guy had a mannequin foot fetish...
go figure. He seems to be a creature of habit;
everyday about the same time he does the same thing, pirouettes makes all kinds
of racquet and wanders around the office.
I still am not sure why he is here, but the boss seems to like him. I wonder if she would still like him if he
backed up onto HER feet. Oh well.
