    13 Things Only Receptionists Will Understand

    *smiles on the outside* *slowly dies on the inside*

    1. When someone calls the office at literally 7:01 am.

    2. You're pretty sure you've replaced your blood supply with coffee.

    3. When the phone rings at the very moment you take a bite of food.

    4. So you start to eat tiny morsels like a rabbit.

    5. When you realize you're paid the least but you might be the only competent one in the office.

    6. When you answer the phone "good afternoon" but it's only 9am.

    7. When that one salesman who just won't give up walks in the door.

    8. When your desk is right under the only air conditioner.

    9. Always being up on the office gossip

    10. When customers are rude to you but you can't be rude back.

    11. Every time you have to lie to someone on the phone, you die a little inside

    12. When you've used up all your sick days and can't afford to take a day off

    13. And of course, when a coworker actually looks out for once and answers the phone.
