Open open letter to The Boss

I try not to name my employer directly in my blog so I can at least have a bit of plausible deniability in the event I do or say something that conflicts with the corporate blogging policy, if indeed such a policy exists. That said I've heard an unsubstantiated RUMOR of what I can only only call "floorspace contraction" where we will, as a company, start to move away from leased floorspace and return back to the main company campus where we own the buildings.

The building that I call home five days a week is leased. But I really like it. I like the location and I really like the campus itself. I don't want to go back but would live if I had to. Besides, if RUMORS do turn into truth nothing will happen with regards to my office location until 2011 when our lease r runs out.

Truth be told further it would save a lot of money to relocate the offices back to the main campuses. I don't know the recurring costs of several multi-gigabit connections running between campuses X, Y and Z but it's got to be a pretty penny. Combine that along with the leasing costs and I'm sure things do add up.

Still, I'll miss this place when it's time to leave. I won't stay gone, I'm sure, as one of my favorite watering holes is located just across the portico from my building.
