Johnny's Trailer

So this the elementary school where Johnny L. was placed as a Construction Manager. Typical construction site. What could possibly happen if Johnny takes a week vacation and puts me in charge?

Well, here's the problem: Johnny's trailer...

Anyone see the problem? It's gray. It's dull. It's missing something. It's missing a woman's touch. Johnny ought to be thankful that the company chose me to fill in while he's at the Beach.

So I did some shopping at Michael's for anything pink and/or girly. It was the client's idea to get some pink flamingoes and plant them at the front of the trailer. But where on earth do you buy those??? Has anyone actually seen a store carry them?

So I got the next best thing - pink flamingo curtains.

Wait... what's that sign up front say? I take no responsibility for this one. This was 100% the client's suggestion.

Some pink interior decorations for the eyes to feast on and a beautiful welcome sign will greet Johnny come Monday morning.

Of course, this dreary place needed some flowers and candles to add some "flare" to the place.

Yes, that flower up front was staple-gunned to the railing by the client himself! Notice the beautiful curtain in the window?

Keeping the fax and printer machine company he will find...

Yes, it says "Johnny's Pot" on it.

There's a closet in this trailer with hard hats and misc items, the client suggested we label this closet accordingly.

To make sure Johnny is proud of his trailer, this sign announces it quite clearly.

So this is the desk that Johnny will work at on Monday morning, right across this lovely pink bag that says:

Now, of course, much of this effort would have not been as successful if it weren't for the client's glue gun that assured that Johnny will not be able to get rid of any evidence we leave for him. So what you see on the front doors is all super-glued!

Before leaving on vacation, Johnny left me instructions on how to handle the air-conditioning of the gym. On humid days I was to turn on the air-condition and turn it off at the end of the day. Knowing that Johnny sooner or later will have to visit this electrical room, which is across the jobsite. I decided to leave something for him right there.

But the trailer isn't everything that got a makeover. You see, at this elementary school Johnny has priviliges. He uses the bathrooms in the existent gym, while all the construction laborers use the port-a-potties. So a slight modification was necessary to the "boys bathroom."

Inside the bathroom, as Johnny looks into the mirror I'm positive he'll be thrilled to find this...:

And here's a few more of those girly stuff stickers...

The sticker on the left says "L8RG8R."

Just to make sure that Johnny does remember that he loves his co-workers, I left him a reminder:

For those among you worried about the cruel and unusual punishment, I did perform an act of kindness as well. I washed the floor in his trailer (and boy did it need washing with all the dirt Johnny's been bringing in!). So I'm not all that evil, after all.

I will eagerly await his phone call Monday morning at 6:30 am.

And if he chooses to call his boss first, he's in for a surprise, his boss and a few others in the office have already seen all these photos and had a good laugh. They requested that I post them on our company's network.

Now, if only I could explain to Johnny what happened to the house across the street, which was in perfect livable condition, before Johnny left on vacation, and now looks like this...
