It's amazing the number of people who decorate their desks a work. I guess it's only amazing to me. I'm such a minimalist. I'm the guy who has worn black t-shirts and blue jeans for years. I actually got my desk and it has been decorated for the past several months. It actually had a box. A big box. Three feet by a foot and a half. And it was full of stuff.
I've got a backpack. It's got my stuff from training, a rain jacket, a couple of notepads, and my tech specs.
Some people have photos all over their desks. They have ducks, staplers, tape, all sorts of things. The strangest thing is when people disappear.
There's one guy who has been gone for three days. He's going to be fired as soon as he shows up. (If he shows up.) The thing is that he's left photos of family members, office supplies that he has accumulated, and the biggest thing of all, his copy of the ultrasound of his baby.
I can't understand all this stuff that people need at their desk. And all this stuff they leave behind. It breaks my heart, but then again, I don't have anything. And if/when I quit, I've got two or three things to take with me.
Anyway, we've got some overtime this afternoon. I've going to go into work and help out the numbers a bit. I've actually got two out of six numbers that are not figured through a percentage. I think that I am going to take a pack of cards in case it is slow like it was yesterday.
Nothing going on today. Just talking.
