A Beastly Week

Admin Gal is sorry for the delay, my dears.  This week has held her hostage.

The run down:

  1. A 3-day meeting for a business unit only works on her floor.  Yet, they are cut off from their administrative support and needed hand holding, planning and feeding.  It wouldn't do to have starved corpses littering my hallways. It wouldn't do at all.
  2. An executive on vacation.  But not really if you count the emails, telephone conversations and meetings he called into.  Admin Gal admired the dedication, but this is what put her much admired boss into the hospital last year with a heart attack.  She would rather not repeat the experience.  Good bosses are hard to find.
  3. The floor move to the new building is on.  Finally.  The planning and panicking has begun.  Panicking on the Project Manager's part, who doesn't have a clue to the actual administrative minutia involved in.  Planning involved on Admin Gal's part in making sure that every desk is free of anything valuable and every person will receive all the contents of their cubicles.  
  4. The department is an Admin down, so Admin Gal is covering three additional VP's.  All of whom have had heavy, last minute international travel schedules.  
  5. And Admin Gal has developed sudden and vicious allergies to the building she works in.
So, gentle reader, how has your week gone?
