Anyone for Sardines?

The Dumass Company that I work for is moving us to a new office - or more accurately to another office. I like to call it that soul-sucking little hell-hole downtown.

It's a money saving move or so "they" say. I say they're just trying to take advantage of the workers.

I think the office used to be a supply closet before they stuck 8 cubicles in there. When we visited there earlier this week there were cardboard reindeer in one of the trash cans. If it wasn't a supply closet why were there carboard reindeer in the trash can in the middle of July?

They should have left the reindeer - at least there would have been something cheerful to look at. The desks and files cabinets are gray, battle-ship gray I think would be a decorator's more precise description. The cubicle components don't match so 2 drawers in each cube are brown. Brownish - the desks were filthy (not just a little dusty, but black streaked filthy). After we clean them they may also be battleship gray, or the color may be rust.

Would you believe that earlier this week we got a pep-talk video from the Dumass Company about being loyal to the company and about how they are working hard to make the Dumass Company a great place to work?

Dumb asses.
