Spider in my cubicle

Medium spiders scare me the most. :jameo: How mush sense does that make. The guy I dated in high school had tarantulas so I think that desensatized me to the big ones like wolf spiders. Little itty bitty ones don't do too much for me unless they sneak up on me and then it's only the initial shock. Medium ones.... :jameo: :jameo: :jameo: Quarter sized to silver dollar sized..... :jameo: :jameo: :jameo: Head for the hills! :lmao:




I never said I was saine!

Interesting. I wonder if you've seen C_Jo? :eyebrow:



Chances are, I wouldn't know if I tripped over him.


But, there are instances where cameras are permitted. When I worked for a different company, we needed pictures of UAVs and things down here for documentation and training manuals. And when I worked for yet another company, we needed images for simulation purposes. Both groups I worked for had kind of a blanket permission for photography down here.

Never heard of a blanket policy... We have a FEW contractors that have photo badges, I think somebody was making up the rules as they went along.

But sometimes you do what ya gotta do to get the job done..

Me too! I'm scared to death of those wolf spiders. That picture creeps me out.

Yes it does, unless you have a red badge around your neck, stating you have a photo pass...
I think C_Jo's badge is orange. Or maybe green. I don't know. But he never, ever breaks rules. Ever.

Well I wasn't trying to get all specific, but the one place I worked, there was one guy who had the pass, and when I would need a picture of something, we both went down there, and I 'directed' and he got the shots.

And at the other place, everyone who worked in my group got a photo pass, because everyone on the team had to independently get pictures.

Every place I've ever been has been meticulous with the rules.

I never said I was saine!

Years ago, I lived in my sister's basement, to help her defray the cost of paying to live in her house.

The spiders down there weren't necessarily LARGE - but every last one of them were of the black widow type shape - large abdomen, thin pointy legs, glossy black color. Most of them had an abdomen the size of a large marble. I would find them EVERYWHERE - suddenly crawling quickly across my desk - next to the wall by my bed at night (and my bed was flush against the wall), scurrying over the armrest of my couch, scurry OUT from under the couch across my *feet*.

Needless to say, I had a hell of a time sleeping at night down there, sometimes, especially after killing about five or more of these - IN ONE DAY.

Of course, the very worst experience was going fishing out in Poolesville. I needed to go to the bathroom REALLY BAD - and my fishing buddy said he knew there was a bathroom in the general store.

Or should I say - AT - the general store. Yep, it was out back.

I went and in dropped trou so fast, I didn't have time to notice that I was almost completely surrounded by spider webs. I don't think I could have moved a muscle without distrubing a web somewhere. I must have counted about fifty decent sized spiders in there. Came out with more than just a few willies.

My buddy was giggling. He said, "see any spiders?" - he KNEW about them. He also asked if I checked under the seat. He told me then what I have never forgotten and have separately confirmed - under the seat is the very FAVORITE abode of black widows.

Oh this is creeping me out just writing about it.

Is this a full of #### joke? Because he is. :lol: It might be brown. What color is yours? I want him to be just like you!

:jameo: I would die. Either situation. I would have a heart attack and die. :faint:

I keep zinging bottlecaps down there, but I haven't seen any motion. Maybe he went away.

Maybe they won't let people have cameras because they'll take pictures of everyone drinking on the job. :lmao: Get it, bottlecaps=drinking. I'm new here and didn't want my joke misunderstood. Sorry.
