some days co-workers is good people
Oct. 21st, 2009 06:26 pmMy workplace is not without its issues, of course. I defy you to find me one that is. But some days, when by 11:00 you're feeling awful and you turn out the overhead lights in your office and turn on your office-mate's desk lamp so she won't think the place is deserted when she comes back from her meeting and you put your sunglasses on against the glare from your computer screen and you close your office door almost all the way with a stickie on the outside that says "MIGRAINE - please proceed gently", you know?, everyone who comes in for the rest of the day will open the door very slowly and speak very quietly and close the door very softly when they go, and if you've got to have that sort of headache, it's really all right that your colleagues handle you with care until you go home.
