The invasion begins

By Anonymous - 28/06/2015 15:00 - United States - Cincinnati

Today, I noticed a rash of insect bites on the backs of my thighs and buttocks. Upon further investigation, it appears that the inside of the chair in my work cubicle is infested with bedbugs. I'm too paranoid to sit in any work chair now. There are 12 hours left in my shift. FML

I really hope you've reported this to your work. You could carry them back to your place and then you're in for a costly de-bugging.

Not only do they carry nasty diseases, they're just about unkillable! Took my family let a year to completely get rid of them and we spent well over 50 grand over that time trying to get rid of them.

The normal bug spray would not do anything. It's more complicated to get rid of them than that...

Get a standing desk or a yoga ball. You'll be super productive and work out your core.

They're not actually that difficult to get rid of, it just takes time and patience. And yes, it is a huge pain in the ass. But not overly difficult.

As someone who had them for about a few weeks: it was a hell I'd like to never repeat again. After about $1,000 dollars to fumigate and multiple hours of washing fabrics/clothing and throwing away good books and objects I can safely say that if I ever talk to my friend again it'll be too soon. Hopefully you had the chance to strip those clothes off OP and wash/dry them before going home.

You should let your boss know. You probably aren't the only one suffering with this.
