It’s Tuesday as I write this. It’s been a hectic week, and it’s only Tuesday.
Hopefully that means I’ve used up all the stupidity from the rest of the week, squeezing it into two days, meaning the rest of the week will be as cruisy as possible. Hopefully.
It’s been the kind of weather that keeps everyone indoors as much as possible, so I’m sitting there at my desk at work trying to determine how long before each employee gets a bit cabin fevery. I predict impending doom in approximately 18 working days. As the commutes get longer and damper the fuses get correspondingly shorter. People start deciding to forfeit their sensibly packed lunches to merely get out of the office for half an hour and regain some sanity.
Whether or not this actually works – I’m not sure. They seem just as grumpyon return as they did when they left, but that could be due to the mad dash from the car back to the office, whilst being mercilessly pummeled by raindrops the size of walnuts and travelling at the speed of a rather fast thing. Needless to stay after lunch the office is split into two groups – the cabin fevery and the drowned rat types. Both equally dangerous.
Something I noticed the other day as well, the only exit (without smashing windows and what not) from the office is right in front of my desk. That means, any crazed cabin fevery folk will be making a mad dash for my desk when it all gets too much. I’m not sure how I should deal with this situation, and I feel like I need to have an emergency plan in place for when it comes to fruition.
I suppose stop, drop and roll wouldn’t really work. Perhaps the ‘hide under your desk’ thing . Though the last thing I would advise is standing in the doorway…
It’s just something to be considered. Do you have plans in place in case of a workplace emergency?
