Just had lunch with Otto.
Where do they keep the antacids around here?

Otto continues to be unwell. (That’s the understatement of the year.)
He called in sick again.
As is always the case, an Otto-free zone means everyone’s getting a lot more work done. Plus, the weirdo quotient is lower.
This morning we needed to get a file from his filing cabinet. No one wanted [...]

Otto was off sick today. Despite the additional work, this is a good thing.
But we had a minor crisis involving one of Otto’s files and I had to ransack his desk in search of some paperwork.
Otto’s desk is – I suspect – much like the inside of his head. A dark, cluttered and scary place.

Otto called in sick yesterday.
Apparently, his blood wasn’t coagulating properly. At least that’s the excuse he gave when he phoned in.
Otto…
He can’t just say “food poisoning” or “coming down with something.”
No, Otto has to have issues with blood coagulation. You know, something you can easily follow up on.
He’s back today. And [...]

So, I Googled Otto…
My guess: He makes up 90% of the web’s content.
He’s LinkedIn, on Facebook, MySpace, etc…
But where he really has a presence is on the comment boards.
He goes by many Otto pun aliases… Otto-bon, Otto-mobile, Otto-maton, Otto-code…
All of them link to Otto@HamishIndustries.com
Otto-cracy, Otto-type, Otto-matic …
There are more, but you get the idea…
He has [...]

Otto: I know what a pencil is.
Me: Great. Can I borrow one?
Otto: You don’t [...]
