Grim Discovery at Work this Morning 18:55 - Feb 14 with 2125 viewsNBVJohn

I was working remotely this morning and requested a room to do a Teams call.

I was shown to the office of a client who is on leave this week who had told our manager on site that it was fine for me to use. I don’t know this particular client.

Imagine my disgust when upon opening the door I was confronted by a Norwich shirt signed by Grant Holt and sundry other Budgie memorabilia.

I had to rearrange the furniture to ensure that none of the offending articles were in shot, but as a relatively senior person I had to be grown up about the whole thing.

In my position what would you have done?

What a horrendous experience. I’ve had a couple:

My team moved to a new office once and had the bright idea of naming the meeting rooms. They chose groups of Mediterranean islands. One of them was rapidly changed…

When my son was in primary school, we went to meet his new teacher who had a life size poster of H*lt on his wall. My lad had already told him I wouldn’t like it. The teacher said ‘I’ve heard you’ll be impressed with this’ and pointed at it. I said ‘I am. It’s amazing to see him vertical. He’s usually on his backside bawling for a foul.’
We got on quite well after that.

It's 106 miles to Portman Road, we've got a full tank of gas, half a round of Port Salut, it's dark... and we're wearing blue tinted sunglasses.

Recreate another moment from norwich's illustrious past by burning that office down.

Find a post-it note, write c**t on it and stick it onto the shirt.

Apologise at the start of the call, and point out the room was used previously for
A children's party, and the clown left His costume.

I'd have took the shirt out of the frame and put some fake signatures on it, other Norwich or Ipswich players.

Indeed, could just have left an empty shoe box with 'Replica Nodge Trophy Cabinet' scrawled on the side.

That might confuse the locals though, unless there was a dictionary definition next to it of what one of those is, to be able to recognise a replica.
