Off Days

Stuck inside my temporary office for another day, no windows, nothing nearby to let in the daylight. That’s only to be found with a long walk down the hall. Construction on the new place will be done later this summer and I’ll have one wall that is nothing but floor to ceiling window.

Employee: … basically what they are asking for is something we can do in their budget if we take out a couple of items that you have said you want as standards on…

Me: (eating strawberries) I’m bored.

Employee: …each of the new projects. I know you don’t want to so I wanted to know what you want me to do about it or if you wanted to call them…

Me: …(still eating)

Employee:

Me: … Ancient Egyptian whores used to rub berries on their lips to give them more color…

Employee: (eyes wide and laughing) Alright, we are going to get you out of the office for a few minutes.

Me: Thanks.

I really do feel sorry for the people who work for me sometimes.

    Windows? What are these things you speak of??
    I work in cubicle hell in the middle of the office.
