Moving Office…Downgrade

Well it seems that the boffins that be misjudged the amount of room we would need if we won a number of contracts.  Not sure if they didn’t look at projected jobs or we actually landed more than we expected.  Either way it mean that most of the company based in Perth had to move over the weekend.  One week’s notice to relocate over 300 staff!  Wicked!

Well, the Office Services team and the Service Desk guys pulled the ol’ rabbit out of the hat and managed to pull off an almost seamless move again.  I must wonder if being so good at relocating staff is actually a good thing?  They’ve become so good the boffins seem to think we can keep doing this.  Maybe they should mess up a little bit?  Might make people think twice before deciding to move staff whole sale?

I shouldn’t complain too much.  My desk and PC were largely setup when I got in this morning.  Also, I don’t have to share with others.  I have lost my river-view window seat and can’t imagine getting that back, but I have a desk; with a blank wall…

So after 18 months in a nice new building, I’m back where I started.  At least I still have my bike rack and shower access; small joys in life.
