Sure, they announced late this morning that we’d be closing shop at 2pm. They needn’t have bothered, really, ‘cause there’s almost nobody here. Going into a three day weekend, arguably the biggest one of the year, is it any surprise that half of the people already have the day off as vacation, another quarter of them are simply playing hooky, and most of the rest are bailing whenever they feel like it?
Mind you, I’m not complaining one bit. I’m enjoying the peace and quiet. I get to listen to music at whatever volume I like, for instance. Nevermind all the webcomics I’m catching up on.
This isn’t to say I’ve accomplished nothing today. I solved a moderately strange email problem for one of our jobshare sales teams, upgraded software at the front desk, and… er, rotated backup tapes. Okay, so that’s all I’ve done today. Your point?
Next week promises to be delightfully dull. Bring it on!

Meh. This afternoon was far from dull. Sitting in traffic, stuck until I got to the point where I could have gone around said traffic (or have gotten off at the exit before and possibly avoided all of that *sigh*), and hearing this loud clang in the area of the car behind me in the other lane. Sucked to be him at that point. I was so glad to get out of traffic, lemme tell ya. As well as being sick of shopping even before I set foot into the stores, damn traffic.
