The Corner Cubicle

I can hear Jerry on the phone from here... telling everyone he knows - including his Aunt Gertie, apparently - that he's moved up around here and on to bigger and better things.

Jerry just got a corner cubicle.

I have to admit it is a pretty choice bit of real estate around here - if you're into that sort of thing.... which I guess Jerry is. He's been drooling over that spot for months when word went around that Mitch might be leaving. It's all he's talked about at lunch, in the elevator, at the urinals.... I wouldn't doubt that he's got a picture of that cubicle on his fridge at home to help shape his destiny.

Well... it's his cubicle now. His prize location. Bob asked him if he was going to have the place repainted, while Doug asked when the first barbecue is going to be. Everyone was crowded around for a few minutes when he walked across the aisle from his old cubicle - cardboard box of files and his 1997 Office Putt trophy (back when they used to do those sort of things) in hand to stake out the spot.

He seems really happy. Even gave a little speech. Something about ' his cubicle is our cubicle '.

Good for him.

..... I guess......
