Today was pretty calm at work. All my people were gone. One was traveling, one is out on maternity leave, and the third went on vacation starting today. Of course, it couldn't last. The secretarial manager has dreamed up a project for me, which I guess I get to start on tomorrow afternoon. Ah well.
E-mail conversation today between me and Out of Town Guy, who had asked me to get him some boxes for a bunch of documents he'd piled on the floor of his office:
Me: BTW, I just got done boxing up the stuff on the floor. I put binders and bound materials in one box (it all fit, more or less) and loose papers in another. I didn't organize the papers but I can give it a shot if you want.
OOTG: Oh. Thanks.
Me: I did say I'd do it if you didn't get to it yesterday.
OOTG: Totally missed that. But thanks.
Me: I sort of said it in passing. I could dump everything back on the floor, if you'd rather.
OOTG: Oh no. I really am thankful.
Me: Okay, just so we're clear.
