workplace nostalgia

[tielan]

The client I'm working at now kind of reminds me of my first workplace; it's that same "company that's been around since the 50s, and has kind of upgraded-ish to the 70s in office decor, and has all the necessary IT hardware but a lot of their 'systems procedures' are still kept in hardcopy folders.

The desk I'm at - possibly once a secretary's desk - still has a couple of folders labelled "Corporate Accounts: Information Handbook" and "Cheque Res" on the shelf...

It's that kind of a place, and it's kind of...comforting.

I visited a workplace I'd not been in for fifteen years and saw folders on the shelves, in use, with my handwriting on the spine.

It is pretty legible handwriting :)
