Let me share my Friday morning horoscope ritual. See, I’m a total Virgo at work – organized to a fault but also overthink everything. Got curious about what the stars might say today, so I grabbed my phone still half-asleep around 7 AM.
The Morning Chaos
Scrolled past a hundred notifications first. Work emails already blowing up before I even made coffee. Spilled oat milk everywhere while trying to open this “Virgo Career Horoscope” page. Classic mess.
What Actually Happened
Had to wade through like three pop-up ads screaming “YOUR CAREER IS DOOMED” first. Annoying as heck. Finally got to the meaty part:
- Mercury in retrograde warning – basically “don’t trust your email app today”
- Some mumbo-jumbo about collaboration opportunities
- Told me to double-check paperwork (typical Virgo advice)
- Said bosses might seem extra petty this week
How It Actually Played Out
Took the paperwork tip seriously. Rechecked my project report – found two typos in the budget section! Fixed those before sending. Wouldn’t have bothered normally.
Ignored the “collaboration opportunity” bit… until Brenda from accounting pinged me about cross-training. Coincidence? Maybe. Went ahead with it – wasn’t terrible.
And oh man – the Mercury retrograde thing. Boss absolutely lost it over CC etiquette around 2:30 PM. I just nodded while thinking about that horoscope bullet point.
My Takeaway
Honestly? Probably just lucky guesses mixed with common sense. BUT seeing it spelled out made me pause before hitting send on angry emails twice today. Would I pay for career horoscopes? Hell no. Was it kinda spooky how “double-check financial docs” saved my butt? Yeah. Still not telling my coworkers I did this though.
