Construction coming to a close?
>> Thursday, March 27, 2008
Phase 1 of the office remodel is nearly complete, which means this time next week I will be moving into my nice new space.  Hopefully the only things I will have in my office will be my office equipment and my personal files.  We will see.
Currently in my office there are all the office supplies, a typewriter, my computer, a multimedia workstation, 2 printers, a fax machine and a huge copier, office mailboxes, the sign out sheets, the car keys, 4 ugly artificial plants, more paper in more colors than an office should ever have, binders.  It is quite smashed in here and its probably the hardest 2 months anyone should have to work under.  I was all for throwing away several things that are squished under my desk, but the managers said we would need them all someday.
When I went through the office supplies it was pretty gross, several things were older than I am, and I feel no guilt for throwing out objects that are used once every ten years. 
The office needed a remodel, parts of it are still laden with 70's forest green and grey carpet.  GREY! 
Then on top of that I was given more filing than ever because of the big move.  Filing duplicates...  this office needs to let go off the need of having every single form of correspondence as a hard copy.   Digital Age, need we say more?  I understand people sue over someone combing their hair wrong, but duplicates?  It seems a bit much, and then it makes the files big and cluttered and difficult to find information in. 
Irritating?  I think so.

Sounds like you're having one of those work days where at the end of the day you need an understanding hubby to put a smile on your face!
