Seems we have lift off. There's a bunch of dudes here for the cameras and a bunch of other dudes here for the door frames. Because of that, I've been ejected from my spare room which I use as a kinda office. Today's also the only weekday I don't have anything happening (besides 1 phone call "anytime between 9am and 2pm"), so I was hoping to get some study done. A bit hard to concentrate when they're going wild with the power saws.

The "case management practitioner supervisor" (I don't know what it is, but I absolutely hate that title) is here (the tradies have to be supervised when they're inside), so she ejected me from the other office to go do phone calls. So I'm just sort of floating around trying to find somewhere chill now

E: looks like I was correct about the security cameras. It's a proper corporate style system. Featuring a locked cabinet with a UPS and a plexiglass shield over the monitor. Not a huge fan of that, I most certainly would not be having anything like that in my house, once I move. Feels kind of unhomely and a bit business or corporation like, but I guess it stops inside jobs, so that's nice I suppose
