today at work, i had planned to leave a little early, being friday and all. i had taken a slightly shorter lunch break and was hoping to get out at 4:40 and beat all that nasty traffic.
at 4:40, i was asked to stay just ten minutes longer until someone came to drop something off for someone who had left. (they could just ask for my name and then i would place it on their desk)
5:00 rolls around. no one.
5:10. still haven't heard anything. security guard adds me on our work chat, but says nothing. i don't get a phone call about mysterious package, so i decide to ride the elevator down and check things out.
5:15. i walk around looking. looking. nothing. no one. i ride back up the elevator.
5:20. i decide to ask this security guard on the chat machine about the package. he says that yes someone arrived at the front desk. i hurry down the elevator. (it's a good thing i don't get motion sickness)
5:25. i ask the security guard at the desk. oh... different security guard. he doesn't know what i'm talking about. he calls security guard "A" and uses a bunch of code jumble. then hands the phone to me. i am told that mysterious person with package was escorted up to my floor.
5:30. i ride the elevator back up. he's not there. no one has seen him. i get on chat. he says southwest corner. i circle the floor. 3 times.
5:35. finally, on the west side, in an obscure cubicle, is a man who says he has seen the mysterious man with the package and that he dropped it off with the man who had supposedly left (yes the same one i had stayed to pick up the package for!)
5:40. i head home. ah! at least there was no traffic at this point!
happy weekend everyone!
