They need to check their map

Last time I looked, Google Maps has that distance as 147 miles. But 10 miles is a decent estimate, I guess.

“Okay, let’s put it on the truck!”

“No, wait. Bring it back! It can’t go out until tomorrow!”

These are the screws that hold my TV together. The TV I haven’t been able to put back together since I moved. Mainly because I’m not smart enough to put the original screws with the TV during a move.

A few weeks ago I decided to start saving energy in the corporate environment. Turning off lights when rooms weren’t in use. Turning out the hallways lights when there’s only two of us left upstairs after 6:00pm.

Well, that plan turned on me faster than good cheese.

A few days ago, I was walking out of the building and turned off a switch that I thought was the hallway I had just walked through, instead the light in the stairwell in front of me went out. No big deal, I could still see, what’s the point of having the light on in a stairwell I’m going to be the last one through? So I left the light in front of me out and turned out the one behind me. (You getting all this?)

The next day I’m informed that the “stairwell light switch” not only turns out the lights, but the card reader that lets our employees into the building. WTF? The switch is upstairs, behind a closed door, no where close to the card reader. Who thought this one up?

So, from now on: all lights stay on, except my office, edit suite and the bathroom.

Who would’ve thought saving energy would be so silly?
