That is the sound of yours truly hitting the floor. The company that I work for had our first day in the new building today. This last week getting ready for it has been just nuts. I spent most of Monday and Tuesday pulling wire for all the voice, data, CCTV, plasma TVs, security, etc in the office. I think I ended up with around 12k feet of wire for an office with 10 people in it. Wednesday was a moving day as well as getting last minute stuff done before they put in the ceiling tiles in the build out. Thursday was the moving day. I started at 7:00AM and didn't leave until almost 3:00AM on Friday. Most of it was spent moving some of the more fragile things with the pickup (it wasn't a ford but it was an oil burner ). Once 4:30PM hit I was finally able to start tearing down the servers and get them moved. A few trips back and forth later and we were in business. The paycheck will be damn good but I am absolutely exhausted. I have some pictures that I will put up of the new space tomorrow if anybody is interested but the three hours of sleep a night is catching up with me quickly. *whew*
