Due to a scheduling error, I ended up working in the kitchen today rather than out on the truck. Bet none of you guys ever knew that there's such a thing as a pneumatic cheese slicer. First time I ever got paid for cutting the cheese all day.

Forget all the cheezy puns...you cook?

The words "pneumatic" and "cheese" should never go together.

Much like "reconstituted" and anything I might put in my mouth.

In this case, it doesn't affect the quality of the cheese. It's merely a method of mechanizing a process so it can be done in hours rather than days. Imagine producing six hundred pounds of grated Asiago cheese using nothing but a knife and a hand grater. The pneumatic slicer cuts up twenty pound blocks into roughly one-pound chunks that will go into the industrial-sized cheese grater (which is a lot scarier than the pneumatic slicer, lemme tell ya).

Be thankful you can wear headphones. We moved from a private, quiet corner office to a 'bullpen' environment, because somebody at corporate decided it was a good thing to do.

When people hit 50, our powers of concentration start to wane, and mine was already headed that way. So suddenly, I found myself surrounded by a huge room full of loud Generation X'ers, constantly shouting to eat other across the office. I started wearing headphones so I could hear myself think, and I was ordered not to, because they wanted me to 'interact' with my colleagues. Prior to this move, if someone had a question, they would come to my office. Now, they just stood up and shouted.

That was also the same time that they removed 'older workers' from their list of historically discriminated against, protected classes.
