At a secret address....

Called my new office today to get the official postal address that will reach me in April. One of the office trollettes answered, but seemed a bit confused by my request. Why would I want the address? Very silly question perhaps. After a few minutes of waiting on hold and trying very hard to be polite, I was finally passed to a senior troll who kindly gave me the appropriate information. Clearly it's meant to be a secret and not something given out to just anyone! I was, afterall, told last week that I wasn't allowed to attend meetings prior to joining the school on 1 April. As you can imagine, I wasn't overly heartbroken by the news. But having an address that's kept secret from employees, now that would be amusing. It is ironic that they already expect me to give up days to work for them even though I'm not yet on their payroll. Japan is a wonderful place indeed.
