I was in the office first this morning. Before it was fully light outside. I walked in, turned on the lights and the
copier, stashed my lunch and wet about working.
An average beginning to my day.
I was sitting at my computer, checking on something when I
caught movement. In the form of
something black crossing my field of vision.
I turned to watch it and saw it cross the room, turn the corner and head
up the steps.
It was a bat.
Apparently I disturbed it when I turned the lights on. It went upstairs where it was still
semi-dark. I finished up what I was
working on, called someone to notify him of the bat’s presence, left a note on
the interior door for the coworker due in next who is terrified of such things
and went on my way. I had something that
needed immediate attention that took priority over the bat.
As expected, the coworker called to ensure I was
serious. She seemed very happy with me
for not letting her encounter the bat.
The gentleman I called was still tied up when she approached him for
assistance. So another coworker came and
rescued the poor creature. It was just a
tiny thing, much more scared of her than she was of it.
Upon last report the bat was seen fluttering away across the
rooftops, hopefully to find itself a new home, preferably not inside our
offices.
