The Fuck?

Just work from the Weirdest Dream evah: very very lucid, and although I can look back on it now and poke holes in the logic, while actually in the dream I was rationalising everything that happened.

I was back in my old job, in a new building. The workmate who I found intensely annoying and I were located close together, and we had a disagreement that basically was hovering on the edge of violence - which come to think of it is fairly accurate in that I often felt like pushing his smug smile through his desk.

My old boss turned up, and separated us. She turned to me and made me 'Manager of the New Test Lab'. This actually was on the cards if I'd stayed with the Ministry, and didn't raise any alarm bells at all. She also explained that the building management used it until we needed it at which point we'd have priority.

The Test Lab was located in a new building, on floor 14B. We spent a good 15 minutes in the lift trying to reach this floor - my boss managed it OK, but I was distracted and didn't get out with her. The lift then yoyo'd between 15 and ground, trying to get to 14B. On the way down it'd free-fall and brake at around floor, oh, 2. Eventually got to floor 14B when some boy-scouts got into the lift with me.

Floor 14B had a mix of new people, and people from my old position. I spent a bit of time doing the old 'Hey, long time no see, how you doing' dance with the people I recognised, then I caught up with my boss. She was by the entrance to the lab, that was an out of the way storage cupboard sized door. It was locked for her, but opened for me as soon as I put my hand on the door.

Inside it was mainly wooden frame and very cramped. First room was a small bedroom - I remember thinking 'Ah, sensible design, so I can sleep when I'm not testing'. I went back towards the door and there was a stone hallway leading off to the left that hadn't been there on entrance that I chose to ignore as it was impossible.

Then we came across a huge living space and a workshop with a bunch of skis in it. Went in further, found more living space. Found more people, who had been skiing that day. Lab was looking more and more like a ski lodge.

Ended with a confrontation between me and the other people. I somehow inverted the gravity by 90 degrees and made them fall out a window.

So - what do you think THAT means, if anything? Amateur dream interpretors of the Internets, I beseech you!
