    I am. I work at a university so there is barely anyone here. The students have all gone as well as the professors. The parking lots were almost empty. LONG DAY.

    Me, too! I had to be in an hour early, makes lunch time seem a LOOOONG way off (and I'm already hungry!!) :( Can't wait for 3:30 to go home!! LOL

    Only nice thing about being here today is no phones ringing and they are bringing in lunch. Otherwise WHY AM I HERE!

    Me too. I work in tech services of the library. If there are no students and no professors, exactly why are we open?

    I'm not the only one in the office, but with school out and my wife & kids all at home I definately would rather be there with them. :yawn: Not much happening at work today since most of my contacts are already out of the office.

    Yep, I am working too. Office is 1/2 empty, No Boss (yeah!!!) but, I'm worried about snacking out of pure boredom. Trying to find things to keep busy until it's time to go!

    I am! I am the only employee. I've been alone in the office since Monday. Boss is on a cruise. Just me and the office cat and very little business.

    I also work at a university. I came in today determined to take advantage of the quiet to get caught up on some filing... I'm going to start that... in just a minute.... after I check one last thing... okay, okay, I'm going now.
  • Yes....me too, sooooooo boring AND the powers that be aren't going to let us go. They used to, but they'll let their people go, and to **** with the rest of us.

    I think I'm only here to sign for the packages that came....and since none of them were for me, I don't actually have any work to do today....

    Good news is the boss said I could leave at 2...and I'm leaving at 11 for lunch with a friend.

    Everyone who is not from the US will be working today.


    Also... I am the only one ever in the office as my manager feels that he only needs to show up for 2 hours a week. I usually find work keeps me busy.. and to deal with the silence I listen to podcasts.

    Completely agree!! I work in ITS mainly doing web maintenance and graphic design and without the students and professors, I have nothing to do...no requests! UGH.

    My husband and I are both working today and we both work at the same university. As I was typing this he sent me a text saying, "It's so dead on campus". LOL! How crazy. I think there are 2 other people in my suite today, but other than that it's empty. At least I got to park close- lol
