new office

Well, is seems it's time to explain the title of this blog. One of my favorite things my whole life is to people watch. I can't explain it, to me it's very entertaining and I never get tired of it.

So, that said the people I have been watching the last two days is the girl I share an office with and another girl who shares another office with some part time guy I haven't met yet. I'm not sure what they do. The one in my office has nameplate on the door and it says administrative assistant. Isn't that pc for secretary?

Well, apparently the IT guy has been stuck in a closet with the servers for who knows how long so he's getting the office I'm in. Myself, the administrative assistant, the other girl and the guy I haven't met are getting new cubicles in this big roomy room much closer to the bathrooms and the break room. The company is going all out. We got to pick out colors and they bought art for the walls. We're getting new chairs and well, everything. The cubicles are very large and are set up to be very private. Very nice with lots of work surface, wall space and shelves and extra drawers.

Now, myself I'm thrilled but then if they asked me to work outside in the parking lot I'd say ok. I mean, they gave me a job, then moved me to what I consider the best position ever, give me free cable and pay me on top. I skip to and from work every day. But are the others happy? Well hell no they're not and here's why I think it's so entertaining.

They are upset because they didn't get to pick which cubicle they have to sit in! They say they fell like they're in kindergarten again. If you ask me they're acting like they are. Well not kindergarten maybe more like preteen. I keep seeing them huddled together "discussing" the seating. I'm also surprised there's not a "cow trail" down the center of the hallway where they keep going back and forth. I even overheard one imply that she might have to find a new job. After lunch today they informed me which side they were going to sit at and that I could "have" my assigned spot. Very amusing. Can't wait to see what happens tomorrow. We're supposed to be able to move on Thursday.

When I was showed my spot it was explained to me where and why everyone would sit.

Everything logical and thought out.

But then I might be a little biased, I got the best spot.
