-> First thing thing;
-> Work is slowly winding down because there has been a big push for everyone to take holidays the two weeks of Xmas. We haven't had a Manager in about 3 months because they couldn't find anyone that would fit the "unique" role and they've decided to break us all up and put us in different places because we were kind of the department of loose ends. The hilarious bit was yesterday we had a meeting with the head of IT who was kind of very loosely looking after us and said they wouldn't make any decisions until he got back from leave himself, but that wouldn't really be an issue because we would all be taking leave like we were told, right, right? We all stare at him for a beat before I say, "We don't have a manager at the moment. No one told us we had to take that two weeks off." He kind of flushes and says, "Oh, right. Yeah, that's a good point."
We also got taken to lunch by a manager from another department who took pity on us because no one had thought to invite us along to theirs even though as a group we work with EVERYONE. We're like the little Orphan Annie of our company.
- Ugh, I've had complete card!fail. I'm sending them out tomorrow (hopefully) but since I'm across an ocean from most of you they maaaaaay be a little late. :(
Tell me about a story I haven't written, and I'll give you between one and three sentences from that story.
