The Invisible Prankster
One day I was working on a six story office building. My job was on the deserted fourth floor. I was up on a six foot ladder working on ceiling lighting.
I was intensely occupied with my job when I felt someone pulling on my pant leg. Without looking down I asked; “What do you need?”
No answer.
I paused what I was doing and looked down. There was no one in the room. I thought someone was pulling a prank by pulling on my pants leg and immediately leaving the room. After that thought I wondered why I didn’t hear whoever it was walking or running as they left the room.
I went back to my work.
Then it happened again. I came off the ladder and went to checking out my surroundings very thoroughly. I went into the hallway.
No one.
I checked the other offices.
No one.
I went back to my job, keeping my eyes halfway towards the door, watching out of the corners of my eyes.
Then my pants leg was shaking again. I carefully searched the room again. AHA!
I realized a couple of windows had been left open due to the hot summer day. Short breezes would come in and shake my pants leg.
I closed the windows and the Phenomenon stopped.
Thank goodness I wasn’t losing my mind.
However that wasn’t the last of the curious things that happened to me while I was working on that building.
Those instances can be the foundation for at least a couple more stories.
