Good morning everyone!

IT - 3; Birds - 0 Just caught a sparrow and released it back outside. Yesterday it was in the area between the ceiling tiles and the sub-floor upstairs and chirped all day. Today we decided to open a few ceiling tiles to see if it would come out so we could catch it and send it back outside. Apparently there's two up there. We're waiting for the second one to come out. My manager is getting way too much entertainment out of this. Another manager that's been irritating him lately is totally freaked out by birds so my manager is having a good time with it.

Hmmmm...they got in somehow, so they were probably building a nest up there somewhere. Don't be surprised if they return. See if you can find out where they got in. Or get used to them, haha!

They will get in there from time to time and can't figure out how to get back out. If we can find where they're coming in, we'll plug it. There are never any boring days in my office, lol.

If the programs get really messed up, they will just have to wing it.

If that happens the bill probably won't be cheep.

i'll mark you down as a trouble maker, yes, pigeon holing is distasteful, but sometimes necessary to keep mental order of things.
