The 9 reasons I'm glad to have a new office…

I’ve only talked about my day job on here once that I recall. And then… it wasn’t even really about the job itself (even though it was the “things I like about my job”. Haha!) As I said back then, if I tried to tell you what I did… I would bore you to sleep (for the most part). No kidding.

But a new person is starting here at the “Office of Julie” this week and (as soon as she’s trained) I’ll be leaving the room I’ve called home since starting here and moving upstairs in the building. I’ll be honest, I’m not very happy about the move itself. There are many reasons why… but I’m not highlighting those today.

Since I’ve been here for 9 years now… I’m giving you the 9 reasons I’m glad to move upstairs.

New office window will be the one by the tree

 

9. Don’t have to hear others annoying habits. (And they won’t have to hear mine.)

8. Miss out on the off-key song extravaganzas. (Although at times they are fairly entertaining.)

7. Instead of looking at the park across the street, I’ll be able to look over the park. I’ll even be above the traffic light.

6. Hear the rain on the rooftop again.

5. There’s a balcony. On sunny days, I can hang out and write on my lunch hour. (Or just play on twitter.)

4. Will not be one of the primary phone answerers any longer (hopefully.)

3. My very own bathroom.

2. Climbing/descending the stairs at least twice a day. Yay for a little bit of extra exercise!

1. New computer. With Windows 7. :)

So there you have it. The top 10 reasons I’m glad I’m moving to a new office in the building. Maybe after I move I’ll share how the transition went… and whether I’m loving it by then.

Have you ever changed offices? Was it traumatic? Did the change go well? Did you hate it?
