The Sound of White Noise...
Last week, the ops crew went around the building pulling ceiling tiles, and running cables... This didn't strike me as being particularly odd until someone brought attention to it. They certainly have enough cables run to every corner of the building. So, why would you need to do half-ass runs along the ceiling...? Well, I'll tell you why...
Evidently, in order to install the new "White Noise System," they needed to go through all the motions described above. They were pulling ceiling tiles, cutting holes, and installing the new speakers... this feat took them several days.
They layed out a nice grid for this system so that every step I now take, sounds like I'm living inside a computer. I heard it's to cut down on background noise. This did not compute because my office is normally as quiet as a cemetery, but I gotta admit... I kinda like it better than before. I can no longer hear my neighbors dictating to themselves.
I'm not sure what a system like this runs... I still think it's a waste of money. Maybe it's just me...

I could swear I blogged about this before but can not find the post. We had white noise in our old building before we moved to Concord Rd. and when they removed it to move the system to the new building there was a huge difference I could hear everything. Then when we moved into the new building the noise was so loud that you noticed it it sounded like constant rain. Now I don't hear it so much. Kind of like when my son says Daddy ten times over. It tune it out.
