Sent to the hall

Do you remember being sent to the hall as punishment in grade school. Well an increase in employees due to hire of temp clerk for a special project has resulted in my banishment to the hall on the next floor up. Here I am hanging my head in shame. Actually I like it - a quieter space.

This is great in B&W... it's when they banish you to the car-park that you have to worry.

@vignouse espeially if it is winter,

[Lou Ann]

Well it looks like they sure didn’t take any of your work away, you’re safe! Peace and quiet is a good thing! Nice to see you at your desk! I’m guessing that’s one of your wonderful photos you are using as a screen saver on your monitors, nice!

[Casablanca]

That made me laugh! Excellent. Hope it is warm enough for you!

[Henri Russell]

I do hope you will be able to find a space to put all the items on your desk. It doesn't appear there is much room for you to work with all the files there. Great in black and white.

[Karly]

Yes, b&W was perfect for this mood:) Hope you're not there too long - even though you like the quiet!

@365karly1 In April we all move to trailers while they do a complete remodel. We will be in those for about 6 months.

@louannwarren Not screen saver - revolving desktop background. Have several of the ones I like.

[Granagringa]

B&W is really effective here...love that glow off the computer screen onto your hair.

[Wylie]

Open plan is all the thing nowadays!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Hanging your head in shame? Hmmmm... are you sure you're not taking a cat nap?!

[KoalaGardens🐨]

might turn out you have the best spot ;)

[Candace]

I hope it isn't too noisy!

[Milanie]

That looks like my kind of place! Might like a shelf added but I'd make do. What a neat shot in b&w - great for the environment. Enjoy until you hit the trailers!

[Margo Sayer]

Hope the coffee machine is nearby. There has to be compensation for such relocation! Enjoy your ‘Splendid Isolation'!

[Poppy]

They put you in the hall and not the temp? Shame on them!

Also, if they move you to the basement or take your stapler, let us know.

[Sheralee S]

Looks like you have plenty to do! Nice in b&w.

[JackieR]

Is that water or gin in that hidden bottle!

[Joan Robillard]

@s4sayer There is a kitchen nearby and a microwave to heat water for my chocolate-mint tea.

[Joan Robillard]

@ahleena The temp needs to be close to the woman she i working for and I am self sufficient.

[Merrelyn]

Works well in b&w :)

[Taffy]

Laughing in reading your narrative -- yes, the dreaded singling out for public punishment! Your body language is perfect.

[Joyce]

Looks as though you've got plenty of work there. Hope they don't forget you altogether!

[Diana]

That looks like a heavy load!

[Margaret Brown]

A nice b&w, hope it’s not too draughty in the hall!

[Diane]

Hi Joan....I haven't been around much since August. Life just got busy! Not in a bad way just other priorities. I hope you are well, I hope to be back here on a regular basis soon. I really haven't been using my camera much since August and I do miss it! Anyway, hope you are well!

[Suzanne]

Very funny :)

[KWind]

Nice capture. Great B&W!

[Connie Little]

Looks very crowded. Hope they can give you your own space soon.

[David]

At least you have have not been made to sit on the 'naughty step'!

[*lynn]

Enjoyed seeing this, your narrative and the interesting comments. Great selfie!

[FBailey]

This did make me laugh! I used to like my own space too

[Sandi]

They must trust you to be by yourself...How many people would enjoy just such the luxury of a nice, quiet workspace! Creative selfie. :)
