Sandbox update

For those of you keeping score at home....
There is a saying in the house ("house", when used by folks in the medical community, often refers (as it does here) to the hospital. as in, 'is there a doctor in the house?')anyway....there is a saying in the house that we "all need to play nicely in the sandbox". many of us are getting very tired of this analogy. reasons are numerous, and of course opinions are like @$$holes....everybody has one....
Well, our group, being the most..shall we say 'outspoken' group, decided to bring our own REAL sandbox, complete with toys, into our office. since it's arrival about 2 weeks ago, it has been quite interesting to watch how different people come in and rearrange the toys, the sand, and even what gets added or taken away from the box. i have been in charge this month (May), so i have spent more than my fair share of time in the office.......eager to observe.
ANYway, when i came back after this past long weekend, an anonymous coworker had parted the sand, in the process burying all of the toys. the sign above was placed in the box....interesting to see how things change when no one is around.....
well, that sign didn't even last very long. soon enough it was destroyed, the toys uncovered, and life returned to the sandbox.
but not for long. it was interred again. and again. then uncovered. castles were built, a new civilization took hold, and once again cars, trucks, and even spongebob and friends are frolicking in the sand.
who knows what fate awaits the play area this weekend!
