Back in the office...

After yesterdays car troubles, which if you see the comments below looks like costing me $2.5K, I am back in the office...

Work is a bit of a drag at the moment... the company is still lurching to sell half of it off, we're all being asked to continually flog the proverbial dead horse and to be honest, alot of us (me included) have nearly finished what is required. However, there is a big hold up in doing the deal because of regulatory constraints so now we're in the position of not having much to do and waiting.

So morale in the place is a bit down. Funny thing is though is that the powers that be here were moving the company into new premises and have suddenly realised that they have more people than they should (because many were supposed to be redundant by now) and they have to squeeze everyone in!

I have been told to pack my files etc, archive nearly everything and come across to sit in a pokey desk with not much more than my laptop. The story is the same for everyone.

So, we have to work in a stagnant company, wondering if we'll be shot (and some / most of us will be) and then have to squeeze into a new building and keep going in cramped conditions.

Needless to say, people are looking else where and many people are ducking out for "meetings" in their best suits...
