I returned to the office this morning after a few days off (two and a half days to be exact). With so much to catch up on, I thought little that my learned colleague would bother with a prank (although his previous track record would indicate the exact opposite)

As I turned into my cubicle, I noticed instantly the prank. My colleague had gone for maximum exposure this time and it had worked! I laughed and then cursed his name under my breath (there were other people in the office at the time, if I had arrived slightly earlier I would have made the remark out loud.) I got my phone out and took some photos as evidence of the activity and have saved them in my dossier for release at Fred’s next review meeting or one to one. Is that next week?
