Office Space

Really, I don't think you want to go to such a place...
If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.-John Q. Adams
You must accept one of two basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe, or we are not alone in the universe. And either way, the implications are staggering.-Wernher von Braun
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.-Albert Einstein -
I'm in a 5,000 square foot office space that is all subdivided into cubicals. Most everyone else has moved out of this wing and my 3 co-workers have left for the day. I have the entire space to myself. Either today is my lucky day or I was hit by a bus over lunch and I'm now in heaven. I wish every day could be like this...

It would be bad if there was NOTHING to do, like in a small cell block. Give me a good book and allow me to go for a walk and I'd be good for the rest of my life.
In that case, I can give you a couple of names, I promise to keep you supplied in books.....
Treat stressful situations like a dog, if you can't eat it, play with it or screw it, then just piss on it and walk away. Be careful which toes you step on today, they might be connected to the foot that kicks your butt tomorrow.

Keep an eye on your stapler, though...

my office is in the attic in our corporate building. One reasonably sized room that was purpose built. I have a separate AC and heating unit from the rest of the building, the stairs are fairly steep so nobody comes wandering up without good reason. They would have to drag me kicking and screaming to move to a regular office downstairs.(and I'm a big guy,6'3", about 280lbs, in decent fighting shape, it would take a few of them to drag me :-D )

This thought goes through my head a lot more than it probably should... :laugh:

Don't think Bill Gates has that much office space.
Only because Bill Gates does not want that much office space.
