The move
We are in the process of relocating HQ to a bigger and better location. Today the movers moved our mansized printer…the new place has a narrow and very steep staircase…and that’s not comme il faut in the moving business. I told the movers on the phone, and he told me that it wasn’t a problem…on location we had the following conversation…
Moving guy - “JESUS CHRIST…is it going op there…”
Me   - “yup”
Moving guy ” but…”
Me “…”
Moving guy - “it’s so steep…”
Me “yes it is…”
Moving guy - ” God dammit….”
Me -Â “but is it possible…”
Moving guy - ” i don’t know man …FUCK…”
Me -Â ” yeah…and stuff…”
They rig the thing with straps and lines and pulleys and…lift it up…and in the minutes to follow they have a classic “moving heavy stuff up stairs”dialog…
Mover 1 - “Aahh….”
Mover 2 - “&/”#&”%”…”
Mover 1 - “Got it…?”
Mover 2 - “AAHHHHH…”
Mover 1 - “It’s tipping….”
Mover 2 - “I’m slipping…”
Mover 1 - “AAHHHHH….”
Mover 2 - “put it down…put it down…put it down…put it down…put it down…”
Mover 1 - “FUUUUCK…”
Mover 2 - “€&€%!!!?€…”
Ten minutes later it’s in place, and we now know how it sounds like when a 230 pound makes love to his wife…

No…not unless we hire a 300 pound columbian wrestler named Tiny Tony just to sit around waiting for the day to come…We’ll think about it…
