An Ode to a White Board

No, I’m not going to sing, so put away the ear plugs. What I am going to do is shower praises on my white board. I don’t mean to sound sacrilegious or idolatrous, but I really do love my white board. I am very blessed to work for a company that pampers its employees and one of my peak perks is my giant, erasable friend.

I’ve always been fond of white boards. It’s like being allowed to color on the walls without getting in trouble. I can write funny little quips, draw silly faces, or even write out long lists of tasks I am putting of whilst I doodle and joke on my white board.

In the last twelve months in particular, I have kept a ridiculously large “to-do” list on my white board. It grows and shrinks as new bugs are found and squashed. But as yet, I’ve not been anywhere near an empty white board. I’m not bragging. Far from it. I would love to have some sense of closure on this web site project, despite the job security I often joke about.

At the end of last year, in the midst of several months of 80-hour weeks, Tammy stopped by the office for dinner and snapped these pictures of me and my white board. This is when the web site was about half way finished and, as you can see just below the WBQotW, the release date was about to be pushed back yet again.

My White Board

Isn’t it beautiful? Boy am I blessed! (And fat. *sigh* 80-hour weeks don’t leave much time for exercise. Lucky for me those days are over and I’ve lost… umm… well… about 3 pounds.)

I have determined that there’s not any sensitive information on my board in these pictures, so I uploaded a full sized image for your entertainment. This is what an e-commerce web site looks like on the inside. Pretty messy, huh? Good thing guys like me can stretch a pretty user interface over the top of the chaos.
