'Potential'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Aw, I love the Bauhaus esthetic. I have a weird fondness for International Modern, even. Although, as in most areas where taste is involved, what I really like is variety.
My conference call was fruitful, even though Sales did not call in. And I have already recapped it, yay.
This day, IDK, there's a lot of it.
Apparently right angles are passé in modern office buildings, so several offices--all of which have glass walls--are trapezoids, many hallways become narrower or wider without reason, and the windows need to stick out from the walls in angled bays. Bah.
ION, my customer is complaining that his hard drive is just too small at 180 gb. Which, in this day and age, is small, but I remember two floppy disks, one for program and one for data.

Wow, I think that would mess with me real bad.
Aaron Sorkin is adapting To Kill a Mockingbird for the stage. My Twitter timeline has already exploded with walk-and-talk jokes.
It's amazing that Harper Lee suddenly changed her mind and allowed her novel to be adapted for the stage, after all these decades of being against it.

I don't have much in the way of right angles in my house, but that's because soil subsidence is uneven. Might be better if it looked like it was on purpose? Hard to say.
They made a movie of TKaM but not a play? Huh.
Chris Christie: LOSER.
I have the requisite GIF from Hamilton running through my head here.
Wow, I think that would mess with me real bad.
There are also intermittent three-quarters height freestanding walls, because remarkably, human beings need to divide space into smaller, workable units, and those walls are starting to wobble if you lean or bump into them.
And the reactionarily rectangular cubical set up divides this style-forward space up into awkward leftover areas that can't have anything done with them. Dead chairs tend to accumulate there.
I love architecture. I love creativity in architecture. But function comes first (I'm looking at you, Le Courbusier!)
See, if your office space is basically a warehouse the cubicles fit very nicely. We're very symmetric. Lacking in windows, but symmetric.
Oh, I love the windows. I'll cut anyone who tries to take my windows away.
