Thanks, Boss...

I just wanted to relay some good news. My boss has been out of town at a conference. Yesterday he called and asked what kind of light bulbs we have in the office. I checked and told him they are the regular "bight white" bulbs. He told me that at one of his meetings they were talking about office safety and health and the speaker mentioned that full-specturm lighting is much better for you than the regual bight white, and specifically that they reduce the incidence of head aches. He told me perhaps having full-spectrum bulbs would help reduce the number of headaches I get. He then called - remember he is out of town at a conference - the building management and had them put full-specturm light bulbs in my office (My office has a soft glow now!). So, thank you, Boss! Whether they help cut down on my CH I do not know, but knowing that my boss cares about my well-being is a great thing.  Just thought I'd share.
Hope you are all PFDAN!!

Wish it were possible to lease a time share on your boss.

Damn that is nice to hear. You seem to have a great Boss there (or you are a very valued employee). Anyway at least he is not firing your butt "cos you have HA all day and are not performing your duties in an adequite and timely fassion".

sounds like a great boss to have. Keep us posted as I have constant colleagues who suggest office lighting and computer glare are to blame. Could have something here

I consider my bosses to be like family. Makes it very easy to just stay forever, even if the pay sucks
