I'll be in my office


I got this in an email that was entitled “Employee of the Month.” Clearly that title was given by an optimistic manager type.
What, really, is this person (I’m guessing it’s a woman) doing?


Taking advantage of a space that is more private and larger than her cubicle.
Updating her blog.
Checking if there really is “Wi-Fi access throughout the entire building.”
Trying to avoid electronic eavesdropping. (Unclear on the concept, obviously.)
Figuring out how to fix her “blocked progress” on WebMD.

But really, what I don’t get is why – other than for photographic purposes – the laptop isn’t actually on her lap? Wouldn’t that be more comfortable AND less obvious?
