My company is moving. We're not moving far (only 7 miles) but I am dreading going in to work today. Everything has been so poorly organised. It's the usual story, the management didn't consult the actual workers when making plans and consequently many important but small issues were totally overlooked.
The "Powers That Be" decided it would be best to move over Christmas. Most of our customers are closed until the New Year so it seemed like a good idea at the time. However, not all of our customers are shut and those that are operating this week are expecting full service levels. They are going to be sorely disappointed. Our phone system probably won't be running today and our IT guy has warned us it will probably take a couple of days to get all the servers and PCs installed.
So for two days, at least, all we can do is unpack boxes and re-organise our workspaces. As soon as our systems are all running it will be a mad panic rush to complete all we need to for month and year end.
It is definitely going to be a stressful few days.
On a brighter note, I am looking forward to an easier journey to work. the move will halve my travel time.
