when the boss is away…

marcicatThis week is the one week each year when both of the people who handle disasters at my workplace go on vacation at the same time. (It’s a problem.) Which makes it the one week each year when — if a disaster occurs — I end up being the one responsible for dealing with it. (Or ignoring it. There’s a lightbulb that I swear burns out EVERY TIME the boss goes away for more than a few days. We usually just wait till he gets back and let him replace it. It likes him best anyway.)
So each day this week I’ve gone in with my checklist, and slooooowly approached the building, with extreme caution.
1. is the building still there? yay!
2. does it look okay? not broken into, or missing shingles, or burnt down? yay!
3. (once inside) no signs of flooding? anywhere? yay!
4. does it feel like the heat is working right? refrigerators and freezers all working? yay!
5. do the lights turn on? computers? no messages of ominous import lurking in voicemail? yay!
ONE. MORE. DAY. (And then I can turn the disaster checklist over to my coworker and let her be in charge of it.)
