I had 5 minutes. 5 minutes to run into Staples, find the laminate sheets, pay, and then return to the car for a conference call. However, I needed to quickly make a stop in the restroom. Two stalls One occupied I entered the handicap stall and slammed the stall door, because it was warped. After quickly completing my stall needs, I pulled on the door to open. Nothing "Hmmmm, maybe I turned the lock this way", I thought. Turned Pulled Nothing Chook Chook Chook I pulled on the handle and the top of the door. Turn Chook Chook Chook I pulled on the handle and the bottom of the door. Turn turn turn Chook Chook Chook I pulled and shook the door as I panicked that I would have the work conference call in the flippin restroom..... Trapped.... Who would I tell, or call? Do I yell? Wait. There is someone in the stall next to me....very quiet.... I put a foot on the stall wall, a hand at the top of the stall door, a hand at the bottom of the stall door. yank yank yan.....KAPOW! The whole room shook as I was freed. I managed a giggle, stepped to the sink, and began to wash my hands. The occupant of the other stall slowly emerged.... I looked into the mirror and into her eyes, as she cautiously stood behind me. I smiled and said, "guess there isn't an easy button for everything" She stood like a statue and calmly said, "I thought someone was after me.." At the same time, I laughed at my "easy button" joke, which sadly was lost on her, as she choked back a heart attack. "Take it easy", I said as I exited. Take it easy...I crack myself up
