Whoever thinks the ladies (and Gavin!) at the front desk don't have fun at work is entirely mistaken.
Proven by one long email chain and a size 8 Ugg boot.

Ladies and Gavin,
If anyone comes into the York studio returning a size 8 black Ugg boot - our dear client Diana will be so very happy.
Someone left class with one Size 8 Ugg and left her with one Size 9 Ugg so now she walks down the street with one shoe too big.
I don't know if this Size 8 boot will resurface, but if it does please call Diana and deliver the good news.
If anyone can turn this into a Shel Silverstein poem I'll make you cookies.
Regards,
Lilly

It's like I read children's books for my job or something....
On the eleventh of December, of 2013,
Diana took class at York.
She took off her boots and hung up her coat,
then practiced her Down Dog, Cobra, and Stork.
Her class concluded in an hour or so,
And she floated out of the room in bliss.
But when Diana went to put her boots back on,
She noticed that something was terribly amiss.
Her favorite Ugg boots were of two different sizes -
One a size nine and the other size eight!
And when she searched the hallway for the missing boot,
she could not locate its orphaned mate.
She spoke with Lilly, working hard at the desk,
And together they looked high and low,
But sadly, the boot did not appear,
And Diana trudged away in sleet and the snow.
So now the front desk staff is left with a mystery!
Riddled with questions and doubt.
Will Diana ever locate the missing boot?
We will just have to wait to find out.

Jaida, you're amazing.
The following is BASED on a true event...I like happy endings ;)
Twas the morning of the eleventh in December this year,
When little Miss. W awoke,
She thought to herself "I'm stressed as can be!
I think I'll take yoga at York!"
She scurried and hurried and ran straight to class,
Her size eight Ugg boots on her feet,
Once at York she slipped off those boots right away,
And laid them to rest on a seat.
What little Miss. W didn't know at the time,
As she ran in the room with a haste,
Was to the left of her boots was a seat just the same,
Where size NINE Ugg boots had been placed!
As their people took yoga, the boots stared in awe,
They had never seen something like them.
They played and they laughed and they shouted at once,
"We must see each other again!!!"
Time quickly passed and the class came to close,
And little Miss W appeared,
With peace in her heart, she slipped on her boots,
All her stress and worries had cleared.
But as little Miss W walked away down the street,
The toes on each foot felt quite strange,
Confused, she ran back and asked the front desk,
"My boots aren't the same! Who's to blame?!"
A giddy Miss Lilly at the desk there at York, said
"Oh my, I'm glad you came back!
For the woman with the other mismatched pair of boots
Will return again tomorrow, in fact!"
And there you have it--as the Ugg boots had intended,
Their brilliant plan firmly stay,
They will indeed meet again, their friendship still strong,
So till then, Happy Holidays, Namaste!!
