Work

I love my job, so so much. I love the people I work with, I like what I do, I just love my job.

This might sound weird, but I also absolutely love the building I work in. It's very new and very pretty. Besides being pretty, though, it is also amusing. I hear some interesting sounds while I work and I thought I'd dedicate a blog post to them, just because they amuse me so much.

- currently BYU is working on construction near where the BYU Broadcasting building is. Because of this, at random times in the morning while I work, the building will shake. It will literally rumble in our building. They had to send out an e-mail to everyone to explain it and to assuage concerns. :)

- there is a phone in the big room where I work that does not have a normal ring, instead of a traditional ring or even the BYU cougar noise, it makes an owl hoot. Random? Yes. Entertaining? Yes.

- this fall I work in the mornings and every morning I hear this noise; I'm not quite sure what the noise is, it may be a ringtone or a machine or something else, but it sounds like someone is whistling for a dog. What it really sounds like is Johnny Depp whistling to try and get the dog to bring him the keys when he is locked up, and every morning I turn to see who's whistling and then have to turn back when I realize that no one is actually whistling.

- finally, across from where the captioners work, these two guys work on archiving stuff. At least, I think that's what they're working on. Either way, their work involves this really old machine that works with reels, and this machine makes a very distinctive noise. The best way I can describe it is that it sounds like little, tiny people are pod racing in the ceiling. It makes me smile every time I hear it. :)
