What's the View from your work

[Mile High VX]

Thought it might be a fun exercise to see what the environment's like for everyone where they work.

I work from home when I'm not traveling and this is the view from my office:

The near feature is how Castle Rock got it's name and the distant mountain is Pikes Peak.

[vt_maverick]

Hey I've been there (Castle Rock and Pikes Peak)! Very cool!

When I'm working from home this is my view (minus the VX's of course ;)):

Unfortunately my real office view is of a parking lot, but hey, that's better than I had for the first 8 years of my career when I worked out of various computer labs and converted storage spaces. :D

[VX KAT]

This was yesterday's view of my backyard...4" in Dewey. But I don't work :goof:, so it's my everyday view.:thumbup:


http://www.vehicross.info/gallery/data/500/DSCF3247.JPG

Here's the "normal" view from the front.

I'm usually watching the "moving pictures" on the tv, but when I go to the kitchen, I get this....http://www.vehicross.info/gallery/data/500/thumbs/P1000330.JPG (http://www.vehicross.info/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=20255)http://www.vehicross.info/gallery/data/500/thumbs/P1000304.JPG (http://www.vehicross.info/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=20254)

[samneil2000]

Hey VehiX, you hiring? I could handle a job like that.

[vt_maverick]

and here's my view from it :)

Looks cool, but why would you want to stare at a sweaty guy all day? :p

[Luna X]

......wait a minnut, now I'm havin' picture envy... everybody's pics are nice and easy to see within the post, but my 2 pics are smaller than most signatures...;)

[Triathlete]

My "office" view changes from day to day.

Thur, Fri and Sat of last week

The list could go on and on!:bwgy:

[RickOKC]

Boring, boring, boring. :(

No window, fluorescent lights, beige walls. Sometimes for a change of pace I remove the push pin from the wall (the gray speck in the middle). Sometimes I move it over a few inches or add 2 pins. I wish I had a window.

If I did have a window, I'd either have a great view of the wall of a neighboring building or the parking lot. Aren't you glad you asked? :bwgy:

[JAMAS]

Cubicle Wall...

Me and my lovely cube:

I could take pics in my office... of course, then they would have to kill me. Sigh... life in a SCIF.

From what I remember it looked about the same as Sam, Rick, and Jon's pics above. :p

[pbkid]

i'd get fired as well for pic's of my actual cubicle, as its littered with SSN's and addresses.

but here is my view-

Whitworth University campus view (that building ahead is the library), while exiting the Eric Johnston Science building -- I'm a science nerd, lol. ;Dy;

[Ebenezr]

Drum roll please.....Thank you. Now.. the most BORING view of all but notice the very center of the picture!! 8 AM before the lot fills.

[WormGod]

I don't like to look out my office window. I overlook the highway just outside the DC/VA/MD inner-loop so my view is this all day long....

http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Ir5O15bGJ1s/THfM6qKBcMI/AAAAAAAAAEA/xHXcsTuqSR4/s1600/traffic_jam.jpg

When I turn around, it's this....

[Ebenezr]

Both views scare me Wormgod

[nfpgasmask]

Here's what it looked like out my office window last week.

And here's the view in the warehouse.

[VX KAT]

Holy moly Bart! That's a warehouse! Where do you work...Amazon.com? aren't you a software guy?

[Ebenezr]

I SO wish I could prove my VX in snow. but I've been down here in Fort Myers for 8 years know. I know you Northerners ( haha listen to me I grew up in Michigan) can't stand it but when you haven't seen it in years........

[nfpgasmask]

Actually, Amazon's warehouse is just up the street. But I work for Anixter. We sell wire & cable and fasteners. I take care of all the computers here and then some.

Gary, I think there's a 1st gen Trooper sitting in the middle of that traffic shot!!

You have a heck of a lot of wire fasteners there.

[nfpgasmask]

Yup, largest warehouse in the West, and Anixter is one of the largest global suppliers of the stuff...so yeah, pretty huge out there!!

OK, let's play Where's Waldo.....

I say lane #1, white.....??

[nfpgasmask]

Where's the white one?? I only see one that might be a Trooper, and it ain't white. ;)

Bart

Behind white van, N,NW of the big truck with yellow lift on back....

Second guess:
~Lane 2, dark (black or navy)...two in front of a dark Bronco?

Or, something I know way more about...can anybody spot the '84-'85 Honda CRX?

[Mile High VX]

The beautiful blue CRX is in front of the white Mercury Sable.

The Trooper is in lane 2 a bit ahead of the big yellow truck in lane 3 and behind the van in lane 1. You can spot the suspect split rear window with the small pane on the right side of the rear.

Yup, that's my guess #2, the split window was key, although the window looks like it's more 50/50 so it may not be a Trooper.

And yes, you nailed the CRX...I had a red one....my first brand new car, ordered it and everything...my first love I think!

Sorry for the T/J everybody....:mbrasd:

[Ldub]

4" in Dewey.

:confused:...soooooooo...how did Dewey feel about you posting that?...:laughing:

[Bob Barker]

Drum roll please.....Thank you. Now.. the most BORING view of all but notice the very center of the picture!! 8 AM before the lot fills.

I'm with this guy and the crap view, except mine is currently at night. Even worse! Can't see what or who is crawling around in the parking lot!

But we share a trump card in the fact we live in Florida! I haven't had to run my heater more than a week or two this winter, and already taken my kayak to the water while it was still February. So take that, scenic mountain view jerks!

[pbkid]

:confused:...soooooooo...how did Dewey feel about you posting that?...:laughing:

BAHAHAHAHA!!!! :dan_ban:


wormgod-
I would HATE having that view... i would want to leave work all day, like everyone else in the world, then dread it, just by looking out the window... what a terrible limbo to be stuck in all day- sit at work and be miserable, or sit in traffic and be miserable.

[WormGod]

Tis the curse of living in the Fed's Watering Hole. It's one thing to have a large government.... it's another thing to HAVE THEM ALL WORK IN THE SAME SMALL AREA! Jeez, spread them thin. I hear there's a lot of room in the Midwest...

[vt_maverick]

That's always been my thought, especially from a force protection perspective. What sense does it make to headquarter a huge percentage of your government, military, and contractor work force all within the same 30 mile radius?!?

Shhh, don't tell anyone...apparently the bad guy's haven't figured it out yet.:winky:

[Ldub]

Jeez, spread them thin. I hear there's a lot of room in the Midwest...

Ummmmm...NO!

We prefer to remain a flyover state...:yesgray:

Besides, -30 keeps out the rif-raf...:laughing:

Unless they be sport'n some long handled undergarments, & lots of layers, they won't last long round these here parts.:luck:

[pbkid]

sounds like i need to move there dub. I get really sick of the scum of the cities.

[RamAirZ]

My view consists of:

Almost spit out my coffee.

Scrolled down to this and was like "WTF is she doing in Florida, Jesus, we just saw each other last night?!?!" haha. Looks EXACTLY like my EX (the one on the right), who I am, for some reason, getting back together with. The resemblance is uncanny.
