Met some of my new coworkers this morning.

Our desks are arranged into groups (or "pods"). My pod has apparently been christened "Rivendell". We are preparing for a pod-decorating competition against the other pods, including the nearest: "King's Landing".


...I think I'm going to like these people.

Gotta love places like that. Best of luck!

When I started my current job, I had the Bad Horse phone call from Dr Horrible as my ringtone. It took me a couple of days to realise that the reason nobody raised an eyebrow at it wasn't because they didn't know what it was, but because they were all Whedon fans and thought it was a perfectly normal thing to have as your ringtone.

Surely the appropriate response to this welcome would be to beam "Oh, I LOVE Star Trek! Wasn't Rivendell a planet??"

I am very fond of the ladies in my office, but...

(They were vaguely aware that there was a new Star Wars film, but none of them were particularly interested. I think one of them had seen the first one.)

That is so heartwarmingly perfect. My workplace contains some geeks, but we are a covert species amid people who like to talk about shoes. Ugh.
