This is another work one...because I have no life outside of school and work. Yay!
Anyway, I was at work the other day, and, as you know, I clean the bathrooms. But I also was the glass doors on the building. There are three sets of these doors that lead to the outside. As I was doing my job, like a good little employee, I sprayed the glass cleaner onto one of the doors with one hand and started wiping with the other. Now, these are normal sized doors, so they are pretty big. However, the cleaner could not have been on the door for more than two or three seconds.
I had to explain that. Now, the rest of my little story. As I was wiping, I saw something more than a little nasty on the window. It was this gunky stuff that I hadn't seen before. I'm standing there thinking, "that's weird, is there something on my towel that's getting this crap all over the glass?" So I examine my towel. Nothing. I turn back to the door and start essentially scrubbing until it starts to come off. At this point, I'm annoyed.
I take of my too big gloves and start using my nails to scratch the crap off. It comes...and I examine it. IT'S ICE!!!!
In the two seconds I had let the cleaner stay on the window, it had frozen!
I tell this to my boss, and he says, "what did I tell you to do when it froze?" (he's very sarcastic)
I said, "to tell you, and then stop washing the windows. So that's what I'm doing. Telling you"
I also asked him what the temperature was. He said, "three degrees, but the windchill factor makes if feel like -8, at least according to my 'yahoo weather'."
No kidding. No wonder it froze! But hey, now I have one less job to do in the mornings. Bathrooms, drinking fountains, but NO windows. It was a happy day.
I had to tell that one, might just tell it on air during my next radio shift at school next week, too.
