Antiwork

Being forced out of my office so someone else can have it.

Maybe I'm just being petty and overreacting. But essentially, I'm in an office on the 4th floor that I've decorated heavily and made my home. They've decided to kick me out so someone else can move to the 4th floor, closer to her colleagues. Like, I get it, that makes sense. But A) They didn't have a backup plan for where the hell I was supposed to go and B) Didn't ask me, or apologize for the inconvenience of having to move, they TOLD me and C) Don't care where I wind up. I know this isn't punitive, because they've only ever gone on about what a good employee I am. I don't really think they've thought this through. They just decided “we're the managers, we get the final say.” And I don't appreciate being treated like this. I feel like Milton in Office Space.
