Stupid Cisco Event

I only live four miles away from work, so it usually takes me about 10 minutes or so to get to work in the mornings. But yesterday, this was not the case. For some reason, all roads leading to work was completely jammed packed. I felt like I literally dat in a parking lot all morning. I really wanted to turn around and go home, but I couldn't even do that as I was just stuck.

As I was sitting in my car, I kep cursing Google, since I assumed they were causing the traffic jam. The Google offices are down the street from my office, so it seemed to make sense. After sitting in my car and cursing out Google for 45 minutes, I finally made it to work.

Midday, my husband IM'd me and discovered what the hold up was. STUPID CISCO. They had planned some event at the Shoreline Amphitheater that morning. So all of the bay area Cisco employees were heading there in the morning along with the thousands of Google and other company employees who usually head that way. I swear, who ever planned that event at Cisco should get fired. I'm sure I was not the only frustrated driver that morning. I can't imagine that the Cisco employees were happy about sitting in traffic for an hour.
