Work Birthday!

My supervisor sent out a mandatory meeting request today where they surprised me with a very cute birthday card and yummy cupcakes from New York Cupcakes.

It was very sweet of them and the cupcakes were delicious!

Yet Another Sweet OOF Message

Since it is the holidays and all the FTE's are on their 3 week paid vacation, all I receive are OOF messages. Since everyone is in a good mood becuase they get a 3 week paid vacation, we get some crafty OOF messages back. Here is another one:


Dec 13 - Jan 1: Not in the office, like most everyone else. But, I'll be mostly in town, and therefore on email but probably less responsive.

PLEX stuff: plexpert
Complaints about me: IlanB

Another Sweet OOF Message

I love when I actually get personality from the people I work with:

Hello and thanks for emailing me,

I’m currently OOF until Thursday January 3rd 2008. I'm pretty much out of reach so it's probably not worth trying to find me. Well... unless I've won money... then just leave it under my keyboard. No one will notice it. Really, just leave it there. I'll get it when I'm back. Thanks.

What I Did at Work Today

Absolutely nothing! I took a long lunch and met Kara for Thai food in Factoria. All of the FTE's are on vacation from December 15th to January 6th which means I am stuck at work but cannot do anything. I am trying to browse the internet that Julie loves so much, but I am having a hard time finding something interesting. Booooooooooooooooored.

Sweet OOF

This is an OOF message I received from a GM today:

Message Body:
Once upon a time, giant monsters attacked a group of insects. A flea fled and a fly flew. I flu too. Therefore I'm not at work today. I'll probably jump on mail once or twice, but frankly I'm not willing to commit to anything right now.

I enjoyed it so much I figured you should too !
