I was in need of some blank DVDs to burn some content onto, but the case of discs I had in mind were missing from their original location. Time to solve a little mystery!
After questioning a few suspects and eye-witnesses, I went on a search for those missing blank DVDs. My first stop: my old desk. When moving desks with a few fellow team members, I distinctly recall the case of blank DVDs sitting on a shelf. I then realized that when the said desk became occupied, the discs were moved.
I questioned our tech expert. Next stop: The supply closet. He thought the chances were that someone moved the spare discs into that closet. Bingo! I found a small case. But sadly, there wasn't enough inside.
Next mission: ask Production department if they can spare a few. I was suggested to ask Robert. Walking around the to the other corner of the office, I came upon an empty desk. "Out to Lunch" said the sign on the window. Ah bother! Perhaps if I sent an email, I thought, he will get it sooner than I notice his return from the other end of the building. It worked! Once I procured permission, I made my way to the production department.
It was awfully quiet back there! Many workers were thinking deep thoughts and I didn't want to disturb those genius minds. It started to feel like a Nancy Drew game, particularly The Creature of Kapu Cave where Nancy must sneak in between plants at the Hilihili without getting spotted. Taking quiet steps, I sneaked past the cubicles to the end of the hall where I found a half-empty space hiding my treasure:At the complete opposite end of the building I took what I needed and like stealth, crept back to my desk. I wonder if anyone noticed?
More adventures and mysteries to come, I hope!

Yep, they are a sneaky bunch! (They have a better sense of humor, and are all really creative.)

I think Nancy would approve of your sneaky skills. :P
