At the University of the East, they have taken everyone's names of their office door (if they share an office), saying that people change offices a lot and it costs too much to give them individual name labels on their doors.
All the shared offices say 'Academic Office' now.
So students can't find us by looking for our names on the doors, and we feel like neutral objects rather than people.
Me and Julia, who I share an office with, were grumbling about this.
So now our office has a notice next to our door with yellow crowns and pink writing and patterns round the edge.
We are 'Princess Julia and Princess Helen'
That'll teach 'em to force anonymity on us!
Before reading to the end I immediately thought of making your own signs! Great comeback! Are you coming up to Scotland now? Andy said you would come for one night? I hope so. xx
ReplyDeleteI laughed and laughed when I read that.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant! All hail Princess Helen!
That'll learn them.
