waitingmanWhere'd everybody go?
Walked into work this morning to find the place deserted ~ no renovators, painters (Yippee! No bangs, crashes & injuries!!), supervisors (Yippee! No 'Beautiful' music!!)... or co-workers (called in sick... again). If I'd known, I could have brought in some of my CDs for the day. Ah well, the silence has been calming.
Calm was needed this morning, after reading a note left for me by the "Managing Director"/Company Namesake from Sunday ~ totally & inappropriately over-reacting to some pithy remark I left in the work diary back in May (!!??). It wasn't profane, hell, it wasn't even personal, but he's managed to find some offence to take at it & admonished me in scrawly handwriting & 3 spelling mistakes. I've written a letter in reply, but will allow a cooling-off period before sending it, or throwing it away. Pompous illiterate prick.
Only 3 punters have ventured through the doors during the day too.
The downside to this solitude is that I haven't eaten all day ~ no chance to go hunting-gathering-shopping for lunch. My prospective dining companions this evening had better move fast & stay out of range...
