Certain parts of this building became filled with these giant flies. We were told that most of them were coming from a certain stairwell, so that one should be avoided if we didn't want to let more in. But the flies were just flying around, mostly parked on the walls, not trying to bite anyone, just minding their own business which seemed to be nothing at all (typical office slackers).
I had my cup and spoon filled with sudsy water in the kitchen sink, and when I went to finish washing it, there was a fly floating in the water... no longer alive. Not sure if he was after the water or the remnants of oatmeal, but there he was. I didn't think to take a picture, but here is a mock-up showing how big this guy was compared to the spoon.
Why are all these humongous flies in this office building? Most of the people who work there travel a lot, and all over the world, a lot of it in rural areas. I'm wondering if somebody didn't cart them in with some soil or who knows what. I'm also wondering why they haven't been trying to bite people. Maybe this variety prefers do-nuts. If so, they have come to the right place.

Hi Blueberry,
Thanks for your post on my blog. Those giant flies sound pretty tasty... maybe they should just let a bunch of us cats into the building to catch (and eat) them all! I hope you will enjoy my book, The World Is Your Litter Box, when it comes out next month.
Your Friend,

Did someone check that stairwell for a body? Sounds like you need the bugometer more and more.
