Another thought provoking Thursday at the office:

So, as we know…one of my co-workers (who seemed to be the most professional and ‘sane’ out of all of us) just up and walked out a few weeks back. To this day, no one knows why and she won’t talk to any of us who call to check in on her. It’s all very odd, and a lot of speculations and questions have been passed back and forth those of us who had thought we were her friends. On another note…as of yesterday one of my co-workers who I have often mentioned in the Blog, who drove me insane has been transferred to work in ‘Big Bad’s’ office, sitting in the cube next to Claire.

I feel bad for Claire, because now she’ll have to listen to the singing, and toe-tapping…the endless personal phone calls on desk and cell phone. The giggling, and stupid questions….the huffing-and-puffing. But Claire has way more patience when it comes to the thorn-in-my-side who now has to share that office. And Claire is more easy-going and diplomatic. Regardless I must do the *Snoopy dance of joy* over the fact that Thorn-in-my-side, bane to my existence is relocated. One down and one more to go.

Anyway as I move on to the oddities that have transpired this morning when I came in to the office. In my cube was a piece of luggage with i.d. tags on it. Was I going somewhere without being given notice? Was my boss shipping me out? NOPE! Turns out a sales trainee had lost his luggage, and one of the night staff put it in my cube for safe keeping. And damn…I thought I was going to Ventura, CA as to the town where the luggage resides.

On my way back from delivering the misplaced luggage to the Sales Training dept. I decided to hit the ladies room. Now, I do understand why it was…but I still find it odd. Every toilet in the six stalls had its seats flipped up. (Ok, I understand it was for cleaning purposes.) But it was just funny, because for a second I panicked and couldn’t help but wonder if I had wandered in to the men’s room.
