My local King's is terrible: they do not carry Rolos. I got an emergency text asking me to pick up mixed chocolate bars for work. Because we have Hershey's, and Hershey's is boring. I became the hero of the local Girl's Science Project. But, no Rolos.
I'm so addled, I didn't even realize today was Friday, wondering about the fuss of locking up the house at work and why I should have a "great day tomorrow!".
Also, I think I'm the only one who likes the DD right now. And I'd been expecting my having to work with her for the holiday fundraiser to finally bring to the side of the Mean Girls team (so far I'd just been hearing stories about how awful she is).
I really like Trudy's response! It is my very favorite.
At work, we're facing a serious housing crunch in the coming years, and one of the ideas proposed was using one these third party collaborative workspaces that are popping up. Basically with all the IT infrastructure, conference rooms, facilities for video conference, etc for teleworkers who prefer an office but can't be at the main office, but not maintained by your parent company. I think the model is largely geared to tech work (so you're likely to have a bunch of coders working for different companies, but they can talk shop) but in this neck of the woods, I imagine more diverse than that.
I have no idea what terms to even google for, and possibly I'm not explaining them clearly.
Also, skype with abandon.
Virtual office. Regus is one of the companies you might look at but there are others.
Well, I don't need to look, but for Maria and others. I really wouldn't do well in a non-central office setup.
I decided to have dinner and then red wine & chocolate, if anyone was in suspense about my wine choice.

I thought you should have
started
with white wine and then worked your way to the red wine and chocolate course.
Perhaps finishing with some port.
I am holding on by such a fine thread right now I don't know if it can be called holding on. Why do I have to call the pharmacy that supplies the IV meds and tell them they need to page the doctor at 5pm on a Friday, not wait for a fax to be returned? Why do I have to call them and tell them they need a new prescription? WHY DO THEY IGNORE THAT UNTIL 4:45?
I am about to blow, or collapse, except I need to work this until it's resolved. I'm clearly the only one that cares.
