Coming Like A Ghost Town

My Dear Princess and Dear Friends,

There I was, sitting on the couch, happy as you please. I was not planning on going in to work when suddenly - 

ALL HANDS ON DECK!

It turned out the CEO had decided to come to Wellington to hold a Zoom meeting in one of our Teams rooms. 

So here's the thing. You CAN get Teams to talk to Zoom but it's not easy and requires support. And Corrie is isolating because her nan has covid. And Losi was taking care of his kids at home because covid. 

So I had to hurriedly get on the train to do the thing. 

And the very bad word CEO did NOT use the room! 

Not that I'm bitter. 

I decided to make best use of my time by taking inventory. There's a lot of hardware in our cupboards so I went through labelling everything and noting everything. 

And I felt kind of sad because the office was so empty. For so long it has been a place where we had fun together and laughed together and had breakfast and lunch together. 

While we wait for omicron to peak, it just seems so sad.

On the plus side, it does mean getting a double-seat on the train is easier. 

S.
