Silver Linings

I just got moved to a new desk at work. I was not particularly happy with the idea, as the new desk is smaller and the move was badly managed with zero communication. However, on arrival at my new desk yesterday afternoon, I was glad I’d kept my feelings about the move to myself. The view from my new desk? Fantastic!

There are 3 TV screens along one wall of the office. One of those screens is a huge LCD. As I sit here typing I am looking straight at it. Of course, they are all on mute – but if you dial a specific phone extension for each channel, you can listen to whichever channel you pick.

I’m guessing that today it is going to look like I am on a very long conference call while the midday movie is on.

In even better news, I have Friday and Monday off and am heading away for a break at the beach as soon as I get out of the madhouse this afternoon.

    Wow – tv while you work AND Friday and Monday off? Sounds like an awesome job. Don’t tell me they stock your desk with chocolate or I’ll cry.

    All: the TV is going well but the chick sitting next to me keeps asking me to turn the volume down. Bah.
    WT: Yep. Guess it is.
