I'm back to work at Claresco Corporation, my friend's computer company. It is an office of 4-5 programmers and developers (men). And then there is me. I must say, it is fun to be in an office where people are talking about tour du france, adventure sports, ab workouts, etc. The office goes beyond 'casual friday', as it pretty much encompasses the whole week. People cycle to work, so it's not uncommon for the whole crew to be in bike clothes throughout the day.
But then again, my job has a broad description. Office manager can include everything from accounting, running errands, and mail to restocking supplies, and keeping the office clean.
Yesterday, after returning to the office after almost a month away, I was a bit surprised by the state of the bathroom. Sure, it really needed some cleaning (the guys might disagree), but I was a bit worried when I noticed the toilet paper roll was empty and there were some paper towels from the dispenser sitting on the railing nearby. At first I felt a bit sorry for them and surprised that I didn't stock up enough toilet paper before I left. Then I took a look in the cabinet and found at least 7 fresh rolls of TP happily awaiting their turn to be used.
Only in a man's office would you turn to the industrial paper towels in place of soft double-ply that is hidden so far away in the cabinet right next to the toilet.
Love those guys!
