Earlier this week everyone in the office received an email from the facilities management company who look after the office. I'll paraphrase, but the italic is exact quote:

"People who cycle to work like to use the showers in the morning before work begins, however they have been running into problems. It seems that people use the shower rooms for their sit down toilet adventures in the mornings. Could we please request that you do this in the normal toilets and leave the shower rooms to be used as such".

Yes, sit down toilet adventures.

All week there has been a procession of amusing post it notes appearing on the door of the shower room, as well as on the normal toilets. My favourite was the one that appeared there seemingly minutes after the email went round:

THE ADVENTURE STARTS HERE!

Working in a big office means that office humour runs rampant and really does brighten up the day. I'm almost ashamed, but it is quite funny.

Yesterday I wore a new tank top to work. It has a black background with big hearts all over it, and it's a bit stripy. It's really nice, shut up. Anyway, all day I was mocked so viciously for wearing knitwear that looks like a grandma did it then gave it to a CLIC charity shop. I got home and whined to mum about my colleagues mean-ness. "Mum" I said, heartbroken, "how could they be so mean over such a thoroughly adorable tank top?!". "Well" she replied, "it's disgusting".
