bluecastleIt's sort of nice and sort of worrying when your co-workers greet you in the morning with the phrase "I'm glad you decided to come back to work today."
See, I had a calm two days and then all hell broke loose as we're going to be moving stuff, and probably our whole department before everything is said and done as the weight bearing studies came back with a diagnosis of TOO MUCH STUFF! So naturally facilities and panicking and wants everything moved YESTERDAY and we're trying to do what we can but in a more measured way so that people will still have access to stuff... But as I'm just transitioning into my collection management duties, a lot of the updating and co-ordinating is going to fall on me to make sure that the catalog accurately reflects where stuff is. Oh joy. It's job security at least, right?!
On the plus side I have charging in my office a 1st gen iPad now which I was sort of given. I don't really have access to what gets put on it, but I can use it for mobile note-taking and hopefully access to google docs/spreadsheets etc. And if I occasionally take it home to watch youtube videos on, no one will be any the wiser ... :) And maybe I can weasel the password out of our faculty member who's been keeping them.
But now back to wading through the 8000 pieces of paper on my desk...
