The big move

Office space isn't cheap. With 7 (soon to be 8) people working in a tiny office that's probably smaller than both of my brothers' bedrooms, space is valuable. We aren't at the point where a large office is affordable in our budget, so we have to make do with what we have. In the last few weeks, we've made two attempts to make our office more usable. The first was to buy an industrial shelf. Now instead of having computers laid out all over the floor, they're stacked on the shelf. This freed up at least 10% of the space and made the entire office more usuable and accessible. Yesterday was the second attempt: my big move. After most people left, I emptied half of the closet and moved my desk in there. I removed the two sliding office doors, moved a bunch of boxes out of one side and stacked them all in the other side. The years of playing Tetris paid off. Now half my desk protrudes out of the closet and is right next to J�s. I took both doors and squeezed them between our desks so now there is a partition. It�ll come in handy when I�m working hard and he�s busy dancing away to some Daler. Also there will be no more screen-watching when playing CS (counter strike) after hours. When people came back into work this morning they were quite impressed. The office seems enormous now and I have my own pseudo-cubical. Sweet action.
