I Have a Fancy New Office...

Postby Irock » Thu Mar 16, 2006 2:37 pm

And today in the lobby some fancy guy (probably from marketing) in a suit was talking about how he was going to SxSW tomorrow - probably on an expense account. "Rounding out his tour of Texas."

NO FAIR!

Congrats to you! I was just recently downgraded to a teeny-tiny cube from a nice office when we moved to a new building that is the essence of cold war-era gov't building cinder blockesque - I can't even get a cell phone signal in this craphole!

My bet is that you'll need more than kindling as most of the cold war-era gov't buildings were built to survive a nuke. A couple cans of kerosene should make a nice glow.
