Tomasz left our office space for many weeks. At first we were angry at him for having such a good time in Europe for so long, and for leaving us back at the office, to work and slave in our cubicles while he was having a great time. We forgave him, eventually.

He was gone so long that spiders began to make webs in his cubicle. At first we tried to clean out the cobwebs, but after a few weeks we just couldn't keep up with the spiders. It was just too much. We finally despaired of his ever coming back, and, in our sadness, neglected the place.

Imagine our joy and rapture when - like the sunshine coming back into our lives - Tomasz came back to work! And he got right to work too, even though his cube was completely covered with cobwebs.
