Behind the Scenes: The Enterprise Octopus

Work Add comments

I’ve been watching the development of the Enterprise Octopus ever since Sam posted about him. (Yes, Sam, I know you think he’s a she, but he’s not a she, he’s a he, or so he tells me). Since then, he’s had to grow up real fast and before he knew it, he was being unpacked at the Web 2.0 Expo. I felt that he needed some to just hang out and, well, do what any Enterprise Octopus would do.

This is the Enterprise Octopus chillin’ with Michael, our lead web designer, known around the office as Sigler and sometimes Chibby or Chibbs.

As you can see, the Enterprise Octopus loves whiskey.

Despite the whiskey intake, the Enterprise Octopus wanted to try out a bicycle. We don’t allow riding in the office ever since the “incident” so he had to settle for just sitting on it.

All that whiskey had to go somewhere. I think this settles any possible debate about whether the Enterprise Octopus is a girl or a boy. I swear I didn’t coerce him into choosing one restroom over the other.

    Bourbon is whiskey made in Kentucky.
    Scotch is whiskey made in Scotland.

    Anyway you slice it, it’s whiskey. :)

    I can’t believe you forced a girl octopus into the boy’s room. Stay away from the whiskey, Jim. It makes you do funny things.

    That urinal is remarkably clean.

    Not that I have much experience with urinals, but that does seem very clean.

    Jiveliness is cleanliness.

    […] post, I interjected and offered to write it for him. After all, the poor man’s injured and, after a recent urinal debacle, even the enterprise octopus is emotionally scarred. It’s been a rough few weeks for Sam, so I proposed he take the day off and leave me in […]
