Shuffle to the Right

It's Friday, just before 11AM, and I'm mostly moved to my new space at work...one cubicle over to the right. My former-cube-mate's space, actually. Don't ask for the logic of shuffling me one to the right, there's none, really. The larger team, of which we're now a part, is moving up today and Monday. Others in our little (original) group are shifting space too, to make room for them. Because they have higher pay grades. I'm fine, the cube is just as roomy as my old one, though more open right now (bookcases to be moved in on Monday), but two of my direct co-workers, analysts, are losing their offices to make way for those coming up. None of us is impressed, but it's all politics.

And hey, we all get to sit down together for our holiday lunch this afternoon, and be one, big, effin' happy work family.

Yep, it's a fun morning here.  :-P

Derry demonstrates how I feel about the entire situation.
Kiss my furry butt, folks.
Really, though, it's just work. And once I start wearing my ear buds here (which I'll need), I'll be off in my own little world.

Take care, everyone. Have a safe and happy weekend.

Purrs from the boys and peace from me.

Ah. Office politics. How I DON'T miss them. I'm so much happier scooping poop for some pocket money. :p

The reality of having this person right in front of me again is far worse than the abstract. I think I'll need to "stew" on it for a bit, and then I'll work it out and reach a level of acceptance. I hope. I haven't said a word to her, not even made eye contact. I can't right now, maybe Monday.

The holiday buffet food was good, though, and my boss's boss bought us all a round of drinks. That was nice of her.

Glad the buffet was good, sorry about the move.

Office politics are always a pain the butt...Derry has it right, :p

Office politics-- bleh!

Ear buds sound good, but I hope that there is some compromise that you can reach to help make all of this easier on you.

I hope the move goes well. Wish I could wear ear buds at work - would make my day much better!!!

Enjoy your weekend Kim, I hope you stay warm and cosy.

Ugh, office politics are terrible ... sorry you're having to deal with them, Kim. Ear buds will definitely help.

Be well, my friend.
