I lied

I'm sorry I lied to you all. It seemed such a small thing, but obviously Kharma didn't agree.

I didn't even think of it as a lie, but, upon reflection it was and now I must suffer.

I told you all that my office had no windows.

That was was a lie.

It did have one window. It was a frosted window in the door that led to the hallway. I didn't think of it as a window, but really I should have been more observant before making blanket statements about the windowlessness of my room.

It was a psuedo-window, but I really shouldn't have lied and said there was no window because now it is gone and I miss it dreadfully.

I'm rambling. Let me tell the story from the beginning. There is a lot of construction going on. Occasionally pipes start leaking, there is banging, lights flicker, many men wander the halls carrying large tools and hammers. Sometimes they come and do random things in our office-rip all the insulation off the pipes, look for dripping water, leave ladders.

The other day a guy came to tell us our door was being replaced. Why? you may ask. Was it a bad door?

I thought it was a fine door. But they wanted to replace it. We asked when it would be, we asked for warning and we asked whether the room would be secure while they were working. All affirmative.

Yesterday (after a few days warning) we vacated the office. Just after three we returned to find our new door.

Also the lock was taped open (yeah security!) and there was no key at all. So we couldn't lock the door or unlock the door.

The room feels like a total prison.

After emailing and phoning and ranting, I got ONE key this afternoon. 10 people use this office on a fairly regular basis.

I'm sorry I lied. Will you forgive me?
