rosdriseSo, my office flooded... AGAIN.
Note: this was taken before it got really bad. Use that as your frame of reference. It was too chaotic to get a picture after this point.
This happened last year around April when we got a big rain. It rained all morning, but we didn't think much of it. Then a coworker spotted a tiny little damp spot on the carpet. Then we saw the newly sprung RIVER flowing out of another corner. My side of our department is apparently downhill because it all started towards me. Pretty much the entire marketing department showed up to start moving boxes out of the various storage rooms.
Maintenance is trying to dry it out with some giant machine. It's my opinion that after having been flooded twice we might deserve some new carpet squares. AND A NEW FOUNDATION.
I like how this only happens in our department, in a recently renovated part of the building. I'm told it smells lovely. Sometimes not having a sense of smell is a blessing.
I'm currently in a spare storage room/department because half of my office is underwater. I'm connected to the network via the VPN which apparently doesn't have the webfilter on it so HUZZAH!
I'll further sooth myself by looking at Kimura's face:
AHHH. Nice. I hope to have a Million Stars Falling From the Sky picspam of episodes 2&3 put together shortly.
ETA: Looks like there is another HUGE cell headed towards us. Awesome.

This filtering thing still pisses me off. If someone isn't going to work, it doesn't matter if they can get Facebook or not. They'll find some way to not do their work.
Not too bad on the eyes, right?
