It's been that kind of day...whatever "that" is

A couple weeks ago, my boss's boss, an Assistant VP at our school, asked if I would be willing to let some performers for an international festival use my office as a prep and changing space, since it's a decent size and it's right near the performance area. I said sure, then promptly forgot about it until they came knocking on my door today (I should have put it on my calendar, but she asked when I was in another building and by the time I got back to my computer it had already fallen out of my noggin). It's no big deal to let them use it for an hour. I'd gotten most of my stuff done so I made myself scarce and went to check the festivities.

But they wanted to be able to use my office past 1, and I told them I had stuff to do that I needed my office for, so my assistant found them a room that they could use starting at 1. I came back to my office just now, and found this...

A lady just came in while I was typing this to let me know they'll be done soon and will come to clean up. Now she's sitting at that little table just playing on her phone.

I don't mind sharing my space, but this whole day has been pretty surreal. How's your day going, Knottie friends?

  • Wow! If I was using someone elses space, I would ensure it was tidy before I left.

    My day was long. I work in an insurance company and am being trained in insurance BUT thr company wants me to cover reception when needed...I'm not sure they'very thought this through and it's hurting my head...lol

  • I have cramps, I burnt my tongue on soup an hour ago and it still hurts, and I'm getting more work on my desk than I can finish in a week.

    It was quite a sight to return to! I guess technically they hadn't left yet, since their performance wasn't over. They're gone now, moved to the new location so that's good.

  • Ugh, I can't see the picture (damn you TK). 

    I fell 
    UP the stairs going to our training trailers this morning & busted my ass in front of our Plant Manager & Purchasing Coordinator. 

    Good news is that I only have to work half a day tomorrow and I get to see my brother!

  • Holy crap! What a mess! 

    My day is meh. I'm so tired, and I have my trainer today. I just want to go home and get into bed. 
  • I work at a reinsurance company...but I work in the investments department.  I would love to start learning the insurance side, but it's hard to get in over there when you don't know anybody - sigh. 

     

    BUT!!!  Since my 5 year anniversary is in April, they give out little awards for hitting milestones.  They're giving me 3 extra days off this year as my anniversary gift - perfect timing to be able to extend the wedding time off just a little bit!

  • I'd be super irritated!

    I cried this morning because I finished Friends.

  • I would be furious if people did that to my office. I'm majorly OCD and that would cause a complete anxiety attack. Dear lord! I do hope they cleaned it up well!
