no that a stupid analogy bc a conference room is located inside of an office...while a backyard is located outside...i see who didn't do well on their ACT/SAT


Epic Palm to face. So my statement was simple enough that you saw my point, but were unable to process it correctly.

Dude said "my office", majority would assume he was speaking about the room he works in. A CONFERENCE ROOM would be something NOT INSIDE "my office".

Speaking of ACT, you definitely need to review your "carrot is to rabbit as walnut is to _______" questions bc you didn't catch it first time around apparently.

Not necessarily. You can rent offices in buildings for dirt cheap that all share conference rooms.

When you say something like "I am going to a meeting at Tim's office," do you mean that it's actually in Tim's personal office or that it might be in Tim's conference room?


Very strange analogy. Let me use an analogy that's more germane to this particular thread.

If you are sitting in the conference room in your company's office, would you buzz a co-worker and say, "Hey, can you come see me in my office", or would you say "Hey, can you come see me in the conference room"?

If you're both in the same office and more specificity is needed, stating which particular room you are in would be necessary.

If you are across town (or halfway across the country), that level of specificity is not necessary. Stating "I took this picture from my office" could include the receptionist area, the roof, the conference room, or your personal office.

Do you disagree with that?

Your office looks like an all purpose conference room.

actually you can, it's called "shared space" and they have a few of them in NOLA, look up Beta, launchpad, and a few others that slip my mind right now.

That was a typo on my part. I meant to say you "can".

I disagree, if the intent is to mislead.

For example, if I snuck into the CEO's office when he was out, snapped a picture of me sitting at his desk in his office, and tweeted that pic to the world saying "Here I am in my office", it's the improper usage of "my office". I'm in "an" office, not "mine".

Do you agree with that?

No offense but this is a terribly written OP. Initially I thought it could be someone committing suicide, a fall from a faulty window, or falling from a balcony. It should read something like "construction worker falls to death from 53rd floor in Los Angeles." Your lack of details forced me to click on the link to figure out what was going on. Down vote.

Difference between you and me is I would've propped up my Allen Edmunds on the conf table before pretending it was my office.

I agree with that.

If the intent is not to mislead? Like this feller here, who did nothing to disguise the fact that the picture was taken from a conf room.
