My Cube
We moved to a different office building yesterday, on the other side of the campus (about 5 miles on the other side of the campus *grin*). The room we're in now is larger, and HAS WINDOWS!!!!!
I now sit in a corner (yay), sit next to a window (yay) and actually have a TV in my cube (*rofl*). Does it get much better?? Yes, I can sit here while working on my laptop ... glance up to my left and stare at the pretty sky ... glance up to my right and watch tv. Since we're the "special events" team, we have to be able to monitor the events we sponsor ... (US Masters, Olympics, Wimbledon, Australian Open, etc...) we'll most often have the tv on ESPN, but on weekends when I'm the only one in here, I can flip channels. *laugh*
Where they had originally planned on putting the TV, the ceiling was too low ... so they "had" to put it in this corner. Darn. d;)
And out the windows, it's not office buildings I see, but a nice courtyard with grass and trees ... the way it's angled, I have to look around to see the buildings. Whee!
Of course, that means it's going to be a b*tch to have to hike to the car in bad weather (had to try and find SOMETHING negative to complain about... *GRIN*) ...
So now even tho I'm only here 3 days a week, I've gotta "decorate" my cube. Bring in some of my toys to make it "my space". I hadnt settled in to my cube at the other office building, even before the summer layoff ... I'm liking THIS SPACE. d;)
