Silent Facade

Allow me to start off by introducing the layout of our temporary office.

Currently, while waiting for our offices in the main building to be ready, we worked out of a little building which previously was a teahouse in the middle of a park. It’s the reason why we use the phrase ‘going to the teahouse’ rather than ‘going to the office’. Sounds nice huh. Well, it’s the same actually. Work is work, no matter what your office is called.

Entering into the ‘reception’, there’re a left and right area. Washroom is located at the back of the building, which means we have to get out into the cold to visit it. The GM’s office is right on the path of going out the back door and just directly opposite the pantry.

This means anyone going to the washroom or in the pantry will be on the radar of the GM, since he practises an open door (literally) policy. And yes, every time I fill up my mug from the water dispenser in the pantry, I show him my butt.

Anyway, I was working in the office today (yeah, I know it’s a Sunday) and was about to go to the washroom via the back door when I did a double take and saw a white figure outside the backdoor.

Luckily it’s broad daylight or else I wouldn’t need to visit the bathroom anymore. Who’s out there? It’s a bride.
