S: Am I remembering right that there is a place somewhere that lists suggested edge/paint for certain laminate surfaces?
A: Not that I can recall.  I usually just look at the laminate samples and the edge trim samples in my finish binder.  Although Turnstone has those sample sheets with color themes… That’s the closest I would know to something like that.  Sorry I’m not much help!
S: No worries—I just could have sworn that I used something like that once—where it had suggested edges for the laminate.  I don’t know.  I will persevere!
A: I mean it would make sense to have something like that.  I just don’t know that I’ve encountered it here. :)
S: After all, why would we have things that make sense?
A: I don’t know.  It’s like why would we get double monitors?
S: I know… by all accounts it makes too much sense.  I swear it was a stall tactic “we’ll just pacify them by saying we’ll order them, and then blame the IT girl when they don’t come”
A: Indeed.  Not cool.
S: Can we talk about how much I dislike having to work within existing color schemes?  It makes it really difficult to do anything clean.
A: Agreed.  Especially when it’s ugly.

S: Yes.  Especially then.

A: My orange is extremely sour.  It’s almost agonizing to eat but I’m painfully hungry.

S: Yikes!  I have ritz crackers?  And a granola bar?

A: Thank you for the offer.  I’m going to take a lunch in 30 minutes so I think I’ll be okay.

S: Right on.  Hooray for almost being half way through the day!

A: Yes, hooray for that! 

On another note I thought yesterday was Tuesday. :(

S: Funny you mention that—because I totally thought today was Wednesday until you said that.

A: I can’t decide what today feels like.  I’m really looking forward to 5pm on Friday though.

S: Question time!  Do you remember which spec guide a pencil drawer would be in?  ‘Cause I was admittedly totally expecting Universal—but I had no luck.  And thoughts?

A: Storage and freestanding?  Answer, Kick.. I think at I’ve seen a PD in at least one of those!

S: Yeah, because I totally checked Storage and freestanding… maybe I’m just blind or something.

A: No, they like to put things like that in places that that are hard to find.  Again with the making sense.

S: Totally.  I think every company needs to hire someone whose sole purpose is to make sure things make sense.  All things.

A: Yes, but who has time for that?  Clearly not Steelcase spec guide makers.

S: CLEARly.  I think we should write an anonymous strongly worded letter.  And then apply for the job :)

A: ….waiting for photos to render…...

S: SOOOooo fun.
