Clouds In My Coffee

Come 230PM, I have everything done that I have set out to accomplish today. This is a first, thanks greatly to a computer than now works (but still won't grant me access to Hotmail or AIM). Natural instinct tells me to flee, go home, things are under control now. Alas, I cannot. As soon as I leave the building, someone will call and then be pissed off because I am not in the office. Also, I should just stay here until 5PM because I am salaried and working a 6 hour day just doesn't seem ethical. Don't get me wrong, I want to leave. I would leave at noon everyday if I could get away with it (and get all my work done). Right now though, that is not feasible and I sit here rambling about some boring job since I have no social life anymore. Adding it all up and contemplating my next nine months here, mortgaging loans, I think I will fare quite well and will not go crazy as originially thought/anticipated. I still miss the face-to-face interaction with fellow corporate employees (i.e. the people that trained me). Working with them as a sort of team was fun. I miss that co-worker interaction that I see all the time on those Microsoft and Geico commercials. People, don't kid yourselves. Not all places of business are that fun. Look at me, I have a shamrock plant, a wooden elephant, a picture frame cup holder, and ZERO quality conversations.
