Whistle while you work

I had a couple interesting creative moments with my boss today. We were working with a community worker who, unfortunately, happened to be afraid of spiders of any sort. My boss and I found great entertainment from her reactions and ended up starting to write "Spiders: the Opera." It includes lots of high shrilly notes and lyrics such as "Get it off me, get it off me! I'm going to die!"

Later in the day, I was turning the golf cart around and driving pretty slow. I hit a pretty deep hole and commenced singing "There's a hole in the bucket, dear Liza, dear Liza. There's a hole in the bucket dear Liza, a hole." The community worker started laughing much louder than was necessary for the amount of entertainment I was providing, so I looked over at her. It turns out that my boss jumped out of the golf cart as soon as I started singing and I didn't even notice. Mutiny.
