Scene:  Friday morning at 9AM.  I’m sitting in my cube, and two of my coworkers that sit across from me just came in with their breakfast.*  

Female Coworker:  Oooh I got my stimulus money.  Did you get yours?

Beehive:  Nope.

Male Coworker:  Oooh I’m gonna check.

Female Coworker:  I didn’t get all the money that I was supposed to get for my kids.**

MC:  Yes!!  I got my stimulus money too.   This is great!  Plus I already paid off the first half of the months bills and there’s an extra paycheck this money because of the 5th week!  This is month is sweet for money!

Male Coworker then went to take a bite out of his egg sandwich.

MC:  Uuuhhh…?  Uh oh…

I turned and saw Male Coworker with a worried look on his face while sticking fingers into his mouth.

Beehive:  What’s wrong?

MC:  I think I just lost a crown….

Male Coworker indeed lost a crown.  The one on his front upper tooth - GONE!  I had to hide my giggles because it really isn’t funny having lost a crown or having to shell out hundreds of dollars on a new one…and at the same time to go from yes, I’m in the money to having it gone was ever so humorous.

He looked liked he had just been in a fight with a biker gang while sounding like Peter Brady.  Sadly, it was bye bye stimulus for him on Friday. 

**I’ve noticed a bunch of people didn’t get the full amount promised to them in the news, where is that money going? 

*Okay, so if any coworkers are reading this, I’m not making fun, however we all have to admit that it was an amusing, sad, and ironic thing that happened, right?
