Locating the corporate headquarters for Genesys next to the sixth largest shopping center in the country seemed like a good idea on paper, but after Thanksgiving it literally becomes the nightmare before Christmas. The offices are located on the top floor of the Towers Crescent building in Tyson’s Corner, VA and I have a direct view of the entrance to Nordstrom. Knowing the shoe department is just behind those doors is a dream for most women, but not so much for me. In front of that entrance is where the trouble lies.
As the day progresses the long lines of cars grow and grow, and I know that after a long day of work it will take me about 45 minutes just to get out of the mall area and into my normal commuter traffic, which in the DC area is no picnic either. Talk about out of the frying pan and into the fire.
Hmmm, I wonder how I could avoid the onslaught of holiday shoppers, increase my productivity, communicate with co-workers and ease the stress caused by this time of year. Oh yeah, I work for a conferencing company. Score! Instead of sitting in 2-3 hours of traffic and using my finger to wave to fellow commuters, I was able to use it to click a mouse and instantly attend a global marketing meeting, update the corporate website and make major progress on projects I am trying to complete by the end of the year, and I did all of this from the comfort of my living room.
I know this blog entry sounds like a Geico testimonial commercial, and I feel like I should have Little Richard beside me translating my story, and going WOOOOO every ten seconds, but by using the Genesys Meeting Center I am truly living the dream. Are you?
