Well splash some water on me and feed me after midnight so we can complete the set. Our Facilities Manager (doesn't that sound like a crappy job!) has decided that in keeping with our corporate philosophy of Kyosei all overhead lights should be at the same level of brightness. Apparently this level is known as Supernova Daggers In Your Retina. Fluorescent light is bad enough on its own but when the light not only bounces off every single surface causing glare and halo effects the likes of which Stanley Kubrick would be jealous of but also causes severe pain, something needs to be tweaked.
I've tried adjusting my monitor settings to see if I could at least lessen the pain for my main viewing area throughtout the day but it was in vain. I'd request a glare screen but those are not permitted thanks to our corporate philosophy (sniff sniff...is that a law suit). I could wear my sunglasses and look like an assclown all day, but then that'd just weaken my eyes even more when I go outdoors.
Ah, well... At least I won't have to wait until May to work on my tan again.
