Appeal to the masses.
My eccentric Art teacher's latest assignment is building a 10 page book from scratch, and filling the pages with new and original art. I really dislike this class. I've had way too much homework lately. But tonight's entry was supposed to be significant and upbeat. So on to my big announcements. My boss, who is the greatest boss in the world, is leaving us for greater things. His last day will be sometime in May, and the higher ups haven't yet decided what to do with his position. Also, over the summer, my team will be moving from our cramped office to a big new building. The higher ups are also uncertain how to configure this new space. Finally, my boss and his bosses have appealed to the senior staff for ideas in how to improve my team. I had a meeting with the four of them last week, and we have another meeting scheduled for next week. Basically, I am proposing a drastic restructuring of our current jobs and duties. Next week's meeting is to discuss how to implement my changes on a trial basis. I have also been asked to make suggestions on how to best utilize our new space. And finally, I will use next week's meeting to officially announce to my boss's bosses, that I want and deserve his job. Basically I have a chance (albeit a small chance), to pick a team, design their roles, create a new and higher position for myself, as well as design the space in which we would all be working. I'm know this is probably getting my hopes up for something that won't come true, but the chance exists... and I'm going for it.
In last week's meeting I made up packets explaining why and how I think we should be restructured. I introduced a phased plan with which to gradually change the structure and picked out the candidates I believe would function best in each role. Next week we discuss the implementation of my first phase, and how best to track the results it produces. In the new packet, I will be showing my ideas for designing the new office building. Please look over the five four models I've made up, and tell me what you like and dislike about them. (OneThreeFourFive) The double doors at the bottom and the pillar in the centre of the building cannot be moved. There must be a call centre area, a waiting area, and a hardware area. There can be optional offices as seen in design Four. The hardware area must be behind a locked door and the call centre needs to be separate from the other areas to reduce noise. Other than that, the design is pretty open. (Honestly, it was just fun working out the different floor plans.)
In preparation for the upcoming meetings and proposals, I have already purchased two suits and will be getting a hair cut in the near future. Again, I appeal to the masses to find the best hair cut. Do I go for "One", "Two" or "Three"? (Yes, I realise I am not as good looking as these three. The pictures are for hair ideas only, not comparisons.)
There at least are my plans for corporate domination. First the utility companies, then the world! Any help I could get would be appreciated!!
I had planned on more content, but tonight's homework was more time consuming than I planned. I hope everyone is doing well!

Oooh I definitely like hairstyle number two. As for the floor plans, I'll have to come back to them and think about them a little more.

I'm partial to hair #3, but then again you know my feelings on/towards Mr. Depp. Of the three, it best conveys "I'm ready to manage, but in a wild way."

Congrats on your plans for world, or at least helpdesk, domination. I salute you!

Ed Norton.

Office 5. It looks efficient and aesthetic.

Definitely Hair 3. 1 is way too emo looking. 2 would make your head look huge. :)
