November Surprise

Nov 03, 2008 23:11

Today, after I had left work but before I got all the way home, I realized that I had left my cell phone at work. I turned around and returned to my workplace to retrieve the phone. While there, a courier arrived, having brought a huge shipment sent by the Big Name Client for the Huge Project. Of course, as far as I know, we were never told that this shipment was arriving today at that hour. Few people were even around to receive the shipment; the courier was lucky that she encountered me and another co-worker as he was leaving. The moral of the story is this: communication matters.

I'm pleased that I will get to cast my vote in the election tomorrow. I am hopeful that the results of the election will be fair, clear, beyond a reasonable doubt, and quickly available, so that we can avoid a mess like that of eight years ago. I plan to cast my vote early in the morning, since I'm just a dork like that. To get myself in the mood, I even watched a little bit of The West Wing earlier tonight.
