In a building that has to have been the most poncy pretentious set up meeting rooms I have ever seen.

I can only imagine this is what Google must be like.

Bean bags, fancy screens, coloured pens, Toys, yes toys, relaxing areas, you name it, it was there.

Now I hate old fashioned stuffy meeting rooms, and people that wear ties, but this was as gay as f uck.

I did manage to break some sort of computerised screen though, which amused me.

Went past google's office the other week, people riding about inside on scooters with their dog in their hands. Easily getting 6 figures to work in a playground. Where did it all go wrong?

Half in jest i requested a desk at standing height the other day and came in today to see one has been installed.

I get sick of sitting down all day so standing and doing some work makes a nice change. Il rate it later when I use it.

You should demand a special mat to put under your feet. Standing desk with no special mat could be an ergonomic nightmare - the floor could damage you.

When you say 'with their dog in their hands'

You don't mean that in monkeybutt type of way do you?

To be fair to Monkeybutt the dog sneaked in and was licking his arse but he didn't touch it with his hands.

I imagine going to work with a dog licking your ringpiece would be considered out of order even in London.

Mind you, I'd still like to hear the dog's version. I mean, maybe it was the other way round.

Just drank my coffee at it.

You could be right.

Trust me, you could have a massive claim against those thoughtless fuckers. They have a legal obligation to save you from your own reckless desire for a standing desk without a proper mat.

Yeah, they seem to be stalling on buying me another fountain pen from Pen Sense aswell.

Bastards.

Yes, I like to use the personal touch with my signature rather than an electronic one.
