Blues From a Cubicle

Strawberry Spring

It’s almost 70 degrees today and as the day wears on, Officeland II’s inhabitants are all finding reasons to leave early.  Never have so many had such urgent work-related field visits since the Great Black Friday Noon Time Excursion of 2007.

I went out to the courtyard and read for awhile.  I am currently perusing The Complete Stephen King Universe, an exhaustive examination of the man and his works as well as the interconnectedness of many of his tales.   I am well aware of a lot of this, but some things in this book have been suprising; even to a King fan like me.

Anyway, I just got finished reading the passage about the short story, Strawberry Spring (which is about a serial killer who does his nasty deeds when unseasonably warm weather hits in the wintertime).  Needless to say, I am keeping my eyes peeled for the Officeland Mangler!

Tomorrow I go to Officeland II B to bid adieu to yet another employee sailing off into the sunset.  That should be a great way to break up the week.

And finally, I was privy to yet another bit of incredible unprofessional-ism here when I witnessed a supervisor get into a heated discussion with one his subordinates.  My god, these people have offices with doors - go air your dirty laundry out there!

Hope you all are having a professional day, and if you are in the warm weather area - get out and enjoy the  global warming: just look out for the serial killers.
