Crom, The One With The Girlfriend
Mar 23The post title pretty much says it. Crom, our (or at least my) favorite interesting co-worker, has a girlfriend. While this may be new to you, it is not actually new information. As far as I can gather they are in a long term relationship. So that would probably make it pretty old information since my co-workers tell me that she’s been in his life for awhile, and he has been here for 10 years.
So I wonder, what is it about commitment that scares people? He is probably in his mid to late 40’s, and from the sound of it has never been married while he has worked here. I have heard him joke about getting married to his girlfriend. Of course I would imagine that those jokes have happened many times over the years with no obvious change in the situation. Maybe he’s just testing things out like he’s testing out his “new” car.
I wonder if he writes a blog, and he wonders about me being a young (relatively to him) guy who has already gotten suckered into getting married. Let’s hope so!
The funniest part is that I could never forget her name. Previously he gave some of us login information for one of his machines so that we could work on a project. Her name was the password. Even though I have long since worked on that project, I definitely keep that Post-It note around just for kicks.
