This shade structure is over the entrance to the library and directly outside my office window. Sometime yesterday a facilities maintenance worker dropped this golve from the roof three stories above. It bothers me slightly every time I look out the window. What does oppo have for the over/under for how long it stays there?

A picture of my old miata for your time:

Indefinitely, or until a good windstorm. Whichever comes first.

We’re supposed to start getting into a monsoon pattern in Southern NM this weekend, but that glove is actually in a fairly sheltered location. Getting big storms or big wind coming out of the South is fairly rare here.

A very 1980's addition to a 1950's building.

I predict that you’ll leave before that glove does.

I’ve still got 15 years to go on that pension.

That may be about right for how long before I put in a work order for “debris on the shade structure” and/or procure a ladder and get it down myself under the guise  of “other duties as assigned.”

If it gets waterlogged before it gets windy during that monsoon, it may just be there longer than you are.

It was gone this morning. I guess someone wanted their glove back. Being a state agency, I imagine is was something along the lines of “Jim , that was your set of work gloves of the year. You’ll have to buy your own or wait for the next fiscal year for another pair...”

Sounds about right.
