Goon From Automation

I had this great job interview today. I aced my PC test- 100%! I really liked the people that I met. Progressive , educated creative types and really cool offices -(rugs, tapestries and Star Wars toys as opposed to damncubes, corporate propaganda posters and Star Wars toys)

I got back to my soon-to-be former job at the bank and started finishing up on my last few contracts. I had sent one email when the Goon From Automation showed up.

"Log off and shut down."

" I'm in the middle of something. Can I have ten minutes?"

"NO"

They moved me to a new damncube. It wasn't just me-they re-arranged the entire floor. I twiddled for two hours while they did this . I ate crackers for a while, but that got boring. I went outside, but it was 99 degrees. So I went home and stayed there. Without a phone or computer there is nothing I can do.Two more days.

Factoid: I get to clean out my desk twice within three days- different desks at the same job.

Tomorrow, I'll bring a book.
