I made a friend and it isn't this pc

Today I met my new boss Mark. He's a nice chap, quick with jokes and one liners. So we go out to the smoking lounge to talk. He's telling me of how customer service is very important and that I should be nice and try to meet as many people as possible. I reply that I really like patient care, blah, blah... as a man walks by. I say," Hi Ron". He says hello as he glints a smile with my boss. It then that I get the joke. I talk to everyone! And everyone knows it.  And I'm pretty good with their names too. So, Ha! Ha!
I did meet Donna, who is close to my age, beliefs in God and even size! She keeps me on track since I apparently developed a need to sleep. I fall asleep everywhere. I fell asleep in the computer room where I was suppose to be doing individual online training. Then I snoozed during a lecture. She gives me a quick jab and I wake with a snort or some such noise that makes it impossible to get away with the indiscretion. Thankfully, everyone laughs. But did I always do that? It's like the old people falling asleep in church, and when they awake I would indulgently smile at them. Geeez, I'm there and crossing over! It's about time!
