Co-workers mailed this to my room in the psych ward. I will return to the workforce in 7-10 business days.

Or whenever your benefits run out. If you hurry you can still get an hour or so on the clock today (and maybe on the last paycheck of the year).

Do you need a massage? 'Cause I'll come to your room and massage your cares away, poor baby.

Was it explained somewhere and I missed it? - Why did Grant spend the week inside the offices of the stranger? Was he not allowed to go home ever and why? Is there someone inside the stranger's offices at all times? If so, why?

Anyway, many regards, Grant, and thanks for the entertainment whilst you slowly lost your mind.

Could be worse.

You could have driven up to Crystal only to find there's no parking left, like lots of other people today.

Kristin, I kinda doubt that he'd have access to a computer if he was "in the bin."

Will, they're trying to encourage people out of their cars and into transit. Get with the times, sir.

We get one hour of "computer time" a day here.

So this posting and your "Stranger Staff" tag will no doubt be the basis of a precedent-setting lawsuit for back pay and equal compensation according to the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act... or something.

I never got to use a computer in lockup, but it was about 10 years ago that I was last in, so things might have changed. That is cool if they let you use a computer in there! :) Grant, what are they treating you for? (if you don't mind saying)
