Birthday Boy

Today is Chuck's birthday, but you'd never know it around the office. Normally, the boss takes us all out to lunch when it's someone's birthday. Usually with Chuck's and mine being so close, we combine the dates into one luncheon. Well Chuck has been in severe depression mode for the last 6 months, so he doesn't want to do a lunch. Someone else in the office doesn't even WORK in the office anymore...she always works from home...so she probably wouldn't come anyway. So today I just put a kaibosh on the whole thing and said to forget it. It wasn't worth the hassle of trying to get everyone on the same page.
