Water Cooler

This guest post from Doris Dillon

It’s funny how much has changed over the last 10 years. 10 years ago, I was still in college going to class a little and partying a lot. Now, I spend my “party” time talking to coworkers in the break room, our version of the old fashioned water cooler. Not only has my life changed, but the topics that my coworkers and I talk about have to. It used to be centered around, movies, tv shows, the occasional book, cars and even the rare political discussion. 

Unfortunately, since the economy has gone the way of the dinosaurs, our talks have now turned to job security, financial planning and cost cutting methods. The other day, while having one of our now regular cost cutting talks, a coworker said that he stumbled on http://www.wildbluedeals.com/ and found a great deal on internet. So of course I had to check it out for myself. And wouldn’t you know it, I was paying way too much for internet. I guess our new topics are a little more helpful than the latest reality show, huh?
