The agency I work for has its offices in a beautiful building designed by Gustave Eiffel. Yes, that Eiffel. It used to be a subsidiary building of the main Printemps department store.
The reason they can afford this beautifully designed building is due to some extremely clever economies internally.
For example, there are no kitchens. So clever! We wash our mugs in the bathroom sink. Right next to the toilet.
Which is lovely, but still, I've resigned.
Ah...style over substance.
And you say you work in advertising?

It's a French thing. I think.

I presume you're going somewhere to work for someone that makes you happier than now. If this is the case I'm over the moon for you.

Congrats on the move... staying in sunny Paris, oui?

Congratulations ... sounds intriguing! Though I am sure you will miss the "kitchen facilities".

Thanks Gavin. I will indeed miss the bathroom and the powdered milk I've been having with my tea but there's fun things ahead of which I will make a little mention soon. Thanks!

Thanks Jason, appreciate it. Sadly I'm leaving Paris and heading elsewhere...
