I popped in to a client's office before to pick up a box of something he wants me to start working on first thing tomorrow. It's night-time where I am, and I have a key and permission to go in at anytime.
I was confused and surprised to see someone sleeping in the reception area (in a sleeping bag - I went in very late and woke them up when I flicked all the lights on)!
My client has two offices on this floor; the rest of the floor is leased by another business altogether (including reception). Given that's where they were sleeping, I'm going to assume that they are somehow related to that business.
It's very odd and concerning ... nobody should be sleeping in offices! I've never seen this person before, although I only pop in occasionally so don't know everyone who works there, but now I can't stop thinking about it. I texted my client to let him know because I thought someone should be aware; in his usual style, he just texted back, "thanks."
They weren't the cleaners, as - weirdly - they've never had any ... people just clean up after themselves and occasionally once in a blue moon someone will get the vacuum cleaner out and give the floors a going-over.
So, so strange.
