Nerd Dreams
Jun. 24th, 2012 12:45 pmI had a delightful dream last night.
I was hired to be the chief technical officer for a firm in some major city. Which city? I can't say, but from the reception office on the 20th floor of our office tower, I could see a bridge crossing a canal running parallel to our street. We occupied some twenty stories of a all office tower amongst several other towers in the downtown core.
My office was a huge sprawling control room which would make any mad scientist green with envy. Individual workstations had small monitors but the three story atrium-like space was dominated by a series of holographic projected displays showing the status of our in-house computer systems and networks. There was a smaller circle of workstation to the left for the office's environmental & power systems (the building had its own fusion reactor in the basement). I didn't monitor those activities directly but the team's manager reported to me by default as no other corporate officer wanted the job.
My personal office was to the right of the main control room, with separate doors to the control center and to my residential suite. My personal space had even more living space than my current house although I was still fretting about how to rearrange the space to make room for![[profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)

I don't recall any mention of salary or bennies, but I'd be willing to take a severe pay cut just to have a mad scientist style control room like that. *drool*
