What?
Only a personal toilet and shower so it is not contaminated by the scum from the shop floor?
No king size bed with an "exercise harness" over it?
I guess running a company is no longer as rewarding as it used to be.
Now that Viglen boss Bordan Tkachuk has split, some of his underlings have marked his passing with some passings and markings of their own at the previously off-limits C-suite shower block. Tkachuk cleared his desk before Christmas, two years after Viglen was acquired by XMA – itself owned by Westcoast Holdings – as his earn- …
In our "state of the art" building, each toilet is a self-contained room with said toilet and a sink. There are no urinals anywhere. There are a ratio'd amount of toilets marked as ladies and the bigger more accessable versions for the disabled.
So far so good, but the ratio of staff to toilets is pretty bad, so more often than not you have to go wandering round the building to find a toilet. So round here actually find a toilet to use is a newsworthy event!
Many years ago the company I worked for was merged into our parent and, as a result, we moved into the parent company's office building.
The whole move was organised by the MD including a nice little goldfish bowl for said MD.
Rather callously the MD's prize for the smooth office move was getting fired on the Monday morning directly after the weekend of the move itself.
I arrived on the office on Tuesday morning to find crime scene tape all over the ex-MD's office complete with chalk dead body outline and oodles a fake blood.
We never did find out who was responsible...
Not about passing bosses, but company toilet related:
You've probably seen the kind of bog roll holder that holds two rolls side by side. Most of them also have some sort of lock.
A couple of years someone I know pulled a little prank at the company he was working at. They had the sort of holders described. Standard company issue bog roll in both slots. So he changed one of the rolls for a de luxe extra-soft 4-plier one. And put labels on the case reading "Management Only" and "Workforce".
This type of executive bog harks back to the 40's,50's ad 60's....These days, it's a fad, akin to having private jet...did this one have a key to enter too or just a doberman guarding the door?by the way El Reg...perhaps time to introduce a new comment icon... a toilet - massive potential for use!
