The Shitshow looks like a ghost town on the day after Christmas. But if I have to be stuck at work, I must say that the week between xmas and new years has got to be my favorite work week of the year. All the bosses are on vacation, and the few leads who got stuck minding us are hiding in their cubes dicking around on Facebook. Everyone's just sitting back and watching the clock for the magical time when it will be safe to sneak out early.
It's a great time to load up on free office supplies for home, since nobody's minding the supply closet. Need to run 500 color copies of your local club's show program? No problem. And the normally overfilled parking lots are virtually empty. I get my pick of primo parking spaces. This morning was the first in a long time that I didn't have to make a 14-point turn to squeeze my wee little car in next to some asshole who parked their Escalade in the compact car row.
It's a great time to come in late, dust my cubicle, purge files, work on my personal website, text friends and dress like a slob. Hey, there's nobody here to give me shit about wearing my sneakers, so why not? There's still plates of leftover holiday cookies and stuff on top of every file cabinet, so I don't even have to buy lunch.
Because I get paid to do absolutely nothing, I throw rocks.
