Office is a ghost town - Page 2

Ghoulish Delight · 12-21-2007, 10:32 AM

Hard to say here, I'm in a huge lab where everyone's spread out anyway. Judging by how fast the bagels and cream cheese went this morning and how full the parking lot was, we're probably still at 80% capacity. We have M-W off next week, I suspect Th. and Fri. are going to be very quiet days.

I don't have an "office" but my client list is HUGE today continuing through mid-January. I was out this morning at 7, now I'm home and I have about an hour to down some freshly-made coffee and eat something before i scramble about for the rest of the day.

Aw man, Euro, did you have to bring up bacon? Now I want some...

I think I may go early to Lunch, and have Breakfast - I wish there were a Hof's Hut out here

Capt Jack · 12-21-2007, 11:09 AM

Im thinking maybe eggs benedict
or
chorizo con huevos
or...

hmm......

We're all here...
missing one person out for cataract surgery, but otherwise, the gang is all here.
Right now the rest of the group is over doing the White Elephant exchange. (I did not participate, I have no Christmas cheer this year)

We are working Saturday, then again on Wednesday and Thursday, so thats when it will be quiet.

However, the phones are very quiet.

Chorizo! Damn you've upped my ante

Not Afraid · 12-21-2007, 11:23 AM

Hone, I think you may be getting sick....you might have to come home......

Morrigoon · 12-21-2007, 11:30 AM

Well, luckily the Gelato Cafe guy came buy and satisfied my needs with a chorizo burrito (damn you all), and also supplied me with a turkey & swiss for lunch, but I'm so hungry this morning I've already eaten half of it.

Here's where my day officially got weird:

As I'm leaning over the catering guy's cooler, who should walk up but someone I used to work with when I was doing insurance! Totally random. Even more random though, is that he was coming to OUR office to talk with one of our agents.

Of all the offices in Southern California, what are the chances?

My cubicle (built for 2) has all 6 of us in today. Cozy.

The rest of the floor is pretty vacant, to quote the Pistols.

We are closed next week until Jan. 2 and we have a lot of out-of-town contractors who live in various parts of the USA (and some from Canada, eh?) and they took off yesterday.

Lots to do here, unforch, and some are working this weekend.
