Day: December 23, 2005

  • Let the holiday pause… begin…

    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!
