Anyone else want to show us where they work and what they do?
This is actually my holiday job, for which I'm not paid.  But they don't allow anything sharp cameras in my normal workplace.

You could always do a courtroom artist style drawing for us.  Lack of art skills, especially those involving colour or perspective, a bonus...

The office


The place I live for about 6 days a week.


The view from the window changes day by day.


Don't question. It makes people angry.

Not my photo (mostly because I don't get over the river enough, and never when it's good light), but this is my office;

I'll have to take a pic next time I pass on a boat :)

I'm not allowed to take photos in the office.

There is only ONE very important button, the one you push to get free hot coffee.

Hmm. Nice idea. At the moment it seems not to be working. I only get coffee after lots of grovelling and 'pretty pleases'!

Surely you aren't allowed to call them "pretty pleases" any more? Or is that the stewards?  ;D

Hilarious, TimC.  ;D

Photies not allowed where I work.

Although mobile phone generated pics are the only way acceptable to my client to approve work which has been executed.

Funny world.

 :thumbsup: Yes, the one on the left side used to be an ashtray until they banned smoking in the trains.
