AMES, IOWA - Due to the remote working requirements brought on by the Covid-19 pandemic, an Ikea LACK table was hastily stacked onto a coffee table to become a makeshift desk Monday.
Previously, the $10 particleboard table and survivor of three previous moves had been used as an end table and receptacle of junk mail.
When asked about its recent promotion, the table reported, “When I was taken from the stack at the Ikea warehouse, I had grand visions of being used as a child’s craft table or maybe even a nightstand! But this? Wow, I just never thought this could ever happen to me."
"To all the MALM and SKARSTA desks who were always teasing me in the warehouse I say, ‘Look at me now!'" added the table, triumphantly.
At press time, the table was being wiped down after bearing the brunt of the 4th coffee spill this week.
