Red alert


Waiting on ads. Today I'm on planning in the office which basically involves building the classified pages of the newspapers and sending them over to outputting. A few folk are on holiday over here today so I'm helping out on 'the other side'. The planning side. The dark side. In planning today I'm sitting opposite the exuberant Davey and the wonderful Linda. When conversations get a bit too 'diverse' or any outsiders start giving any complications Davey has a large red button on his desk with the word 'bullshit' over it. In the event of a personnel, conversation, or sales 'panic' emergency Davey gives the alarm a good smack and a loud alert blares out from the small speakers underneath the button alerting everyone in the surrounding vicinity to the presence of (you guessed it) 'bullshit'. Handy in times of 'crisis' which Tuesday's quite often do have.
