Unfortunate timing..

I had a small incident at work.

In my defense, I thought I was the only person in the building at the time as it was past 8pm on a Friday evening.

There is a small hallway which leads to two different bathrooms. To get there, you have to turn down a hallway and open up a door to the hall of bathrooms. So in short, a very secluded area.

In the hallway, one of the bathrooms is rather large and very bright as it contains a very large shaded window.

Then, there is a rather small closet-like bathroom, which I prefer to use because it's small and convenient.

Now, the small bathroom also has a funny defect that entertains me every time I visit the place, taking my mind off the sad and macabre medical journals and/or lawsuits I am dealing with on a daily basis.

The light in the bathroom is lazy and will come on in flashes the first 10 seconds after pressing the switch, instead of just turning on abruptly.

This is the flaw that I love about the bathroom. Whenever I go to that bathroom, I quickly shut the door and stand in the dark bathroom before pressing the switch and then - I dance.

For ten seconds, that bathroom is mine and that bathroom turns into an epileptic-inducing illuminated dance floor.

I know it's crazy, but I always throw a jig in the flickering lights for the lasting ten seconds before I go and do my business.

But you know, because I was there alone, I didn't bother closing the door.

Our building has an automatic switch that turns off all the lights after 6pm when the entire office is closed, so the hallway was desolate and dark anyway.

I fumbled my way through the hallway and reached my little bathroom and immediately hit the switch and started doing poses in front of the large mirror until, in my horror, I realized that someone was already in that bathroom, someone who was also not bothered by the lack of lights and was staring blankly at me in the mirror.

Needless to say, my male colleague was insanely humored by my little performance and he has been bothering me on the internal communicator ever since..
