The DU Lounge

Not that we're moving, but back in around '14, I had to temporarily give up my office until a new building was complete.
I was only there about half the time anyway and for safety reasons, staff in the non-permanent structures in the operating units. So, my office was needed.
Anyway, in a safe area, they brought in trailers for those of us displaced, but having to put 3 of us in each room, I didn't have room for my "reference library". I packed them into boxes.
A few months before, my wife got her new car. So, we kept her old one, and I drive that in the winter, leaving my ragtop in the garage for the winter.
These boxes were in that car for a few months and spring came. So, the car is parked in front of the house for 3 months.
New building is open, so I am setting up to move into my new office. I go to that car to transfer the boxes and take them to work.
They're gone! Stolen.
Unfortunately, 4 of my 5 diplomas/degree certificates were in those boxes. The MBA diploma was still in the envelope at home.
I always imagined the look on the face of the thieves when they opened the boxes and saw books on Oranic Mechanisms, Advanced Thermodynamics, Chemical Kinetics, Polymer Chemistry, Chemical Quantum Theory, various tomes on mathematical analysis techniques, and the business books.
I fear those became fire pit starters.
