2 July 2004 09:45 amFor we are the few, the proud bitter -- the one person per office that did not take the Friday after Canada Day off for an extra, extra long weekend.
The halls are completely and utterly empty and each office contains a single, cranky-looking individual trying for all the world to look as though they are working when, in reality, they're deeply immersed in a game of online Tetris or Gemdrop.
Of course, in my office, there's two of us, because I can't really answer phones and, as a temp, I require supervision. I'm not sure that my friend L. counts as supervision, as we've mostly been talking about the "Sexy Hollywood Fathers" special on MuchMoreMusic last night (mmm, sexy men holding their babies -- fantastic idea for a show).
I'm not complaining, mind you. Not at all. I'm getting paid to have this conversation! Fantastic!
