Got Windows?
The prospect of my office's upcoming move from the charming Victorian house we are currently located in to the renovated administration offices in an old manufacturing building offers little excitement for this part-time working girl. But this afternoon, the relocation fell from blase to blagh on my scale of concern when I was told, "full-time employees will have windows." At first this statement seemed to make sense. I interpreted it to mean "don't worry, the offices aren't that bad... small, but nice." Then it clicked. Full-time?
You see, I have otherwise "scored" when it comes to employment. Part-time here, a contract there, and I am bringing in full-time money with 3-day weekends.
But it was made evident that my lux life does not qualify me for what I consider a inalienable right - a window to the outside world.
The more I think about it, the worse it gets. After all, the other rooms without windows include:
jail - the obvious,
then there are bank vaults, but you can't come and go as you please,
Sadam recommends spider holes,
and the Japanse suggest this "comfortable" home-away-from-home... but, alas, no women allowed.
Windows anyone?
