A BFF gave me this. She sewed it herself.
This has to come along.
I don't know how long exactly I've worked in the same office but I think it's between 15 and 20 years. When our agency moved into this building, I was assigned this office. At first I had a desk. Later we all got modular furniture with a 3 sided work space, overhead bins, upright file cabinets and a large lateral file cabinet. I didn't really need all that storage space but somehow when you've got it, you use it. People gave me things and because I had the space, I kept it. But now I am moving. I will still have an office. The new office has one huge advantage - a window to the outside. No longer will I be like a coal miner. No longer will I be surprised by the weather at the end of the day. I doubt having a window will improve my time on task - at least not at first. I am looking forward to having a window. With the southern exposure, my office might be warmer and I won't need to use my electric throw like I do every day in my current office. My view will be of a large parking lot. The disadvantage will be the loss of my current office neighbor. He and I have been office neighbors forever. After all these years we know each other's patterns, habits, likes and dislikes. We have each other's back. We can communicate without words. All I can say is, when I move to my office, he better not make best friends with the new office occupant - at least not right away. I will have a new office neighbor and that might work out just fine. I will be positive about this move. But this week, as I move, I need to make some decisions on stuff. Do I keep the 23 years of calendars? Will I need to know, some day in the future, what I was doing on February 20, 1991? Tomorrow I will post more pictures of stuff I have in my office. Maybe you can help me decide what stays and what goes.
