Internal emails

The fun things I find in my mailbox:

Cc: [Public Works Guy]
Subject: First Floor Urinal

[Boss];

[Public Works Guy] was able to take a look at the urinal yesterday. At this point it looks like it needs to be removed and rodded from the interior.

I will let you know when the work is going to take place.

Thanks,

[Maintenance Guy]

Please pass this information along to the reference staff if this takes place next week so that we can know that this is going on.

[Boss];

[Public Works Guy] and I will be working on the urinal tomorrow.

Thanks,

[Maintenance Guy]

I guess I should care, right? I'm kinda stuck on the concept of rodding a urinal, though.

4 thing(s) to say:

SO glad, as always, that I do not work in a public service capacity.

This is the total extent of my involvement in this issue. First I recall hearing of a problem was the first email.

THANK GOD!

"needs to be rodded from the interior"
Is that even English?
Wouldn't you rod it from the "inside",if you were going to rod it?
I would put off rodding it.
You never know.
Maybe medical science will make a great leap forward in the meantime and rodding will be come obsolete, or be done from the exterior, instead.

Ironically, my lovely Beast has no idea what language this either. What is "rodding"? sez he. I wonder if it involves adding a muffler....
