The other ones are funny but "Janet" perfectly describes some women I've worked with, they constantly complained about how busy they were but spent most of the day doing the same things as Janet or checking Facebook

Hi I’m Janet. I’m sorry I can’t help with your admin task even though I’m in Office Administration Support. I’ve got to leave work at 2.30 to pick my kids up at 4.00. I wear sneakers with my work pants and sandals with dresses because I always have to be comfy and everything needs to be easy. I just don’t have time running around after two kids, they don’t come with an instruction manual you know!!! HAHAHA. Did I say I have kids? Cayleb is 9, he said his first word yesterday! Jrakob is 2 and he poops sooo well for his age, he’s one of the best shitters in his playgroup. Should I tell you more about his diarrhea while you make a coffee in the staff kitchen? Being a mother is theeee world’s toughest job. It’s almost as tough as my real job, I’m a part-time assistant office administration specialist. I work Mondays and on Thursdays from 10 till 10.30. So what I do is hoard any type of stationery that you need and actually use. Here, you can only have a dark purple highlighter. Other than that, I spend most of my time organising social club events for myself and 4 other ‘yummy mummies’ in this office of 500 people. You should buy a $9 raffle ticket to win a dry muffin from our office bake-off. Do you want to buy a fundraiser Caramello Koala for my son’s useless soccer team? What else can I pressure you into doing? Oh, guess the number of jellybeans in this giant jar that I’ve stuffed inside my floppy womb so I can feel the joy of pregnancy again. I know, be part of our office Secret Santa Kringle! I’ll give you some of the good stationery I’ve been hoarding and expect an overpowering perfume candle and a tin of ylang-ylang scented tea from T2 in return. Can you sign this card for Carol’s fourth maternity leave gift in five years while I stand over you and make sure you put $40 in. Thanks darling!
