Pleasant surprise I got at work today (Inauguration related) |
|
I don't know if you guys are aware that I work for the federal government.
We got an email today about plans for viewing the inauguration/swearing in.
We have the options of either viewing it live on our desktops (via IPTV), or we can go to one of several conference rooms throughout our many campuses to watch via Envision.
And it will all be available from 10 a.m until late afternoon.
Isn't that great?

2. In DC the feds are off |
|
It would be ridiculous getting downtown if the feds were going in.

Grateful for Hope

They informed everyone to not view the inauguration on IPTV (CNN or Fox), fearing it could jam. They will have a live broadcast on a different stream so we can watch on our desktops. They mentioned that this was historic. I'll bet the republicans at my job are pissed.:)
