The whole "must be at your desk 9-5" attitude is so outdated.

Somewhere I used to work built a new building, nobody had there own desk and there weren't enough desks for the amount of staff. The idea being that staff were to be encouraged to work flexibly and work from home, problem was managers were dinosaurs who thought if staff weren't at their deal then they weren't working. So you can imagine how that one worked out <laugh>
It really winds me up. I think the company I work for think they're really progressive because men don't have to wear ties for work and the meeting rooms all have wacky names.

It looks as if the company I work for will have a token office in the near future.

Most of the development team are overseas anyway and a large amount of the staff in the London office are sales orientated so it makes sense to cut back on an overhead for a full time office to potentially accommodate a team of 40.

I'd happily work from home majority of the week with the occasional day in face to face meetings.

Other than meetings, there's absolutely no need for me to be stuck in an office. I'm far more productive at home because I don't get people coming up to my desk and badgering me about stuff or being dragged into things that 100% are not my job.

Takes skill, patience and awareness that <gent>
It’s the noise, the passion, the feeling of belonging, the pride in your city.

I particularly like the irony of dropping one in the fresh produce aisle.

Dropping one in a lift as you exit is the ultimate

No. Then you miss the carnage it creates.

The Morrison's near me in Blyth permanently smells like raw sewage, and it's especially strong at the entrance where all the fresh produce is. A disgusting fart would probably be a welcome distraction.
