One with a row of resin monkeys 'see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil' and a smiley face badge glued to the corner of her computer screen, a sign saying 'you don't have to be mad to work here but it helps' and a hand crocheted cushion on the seat, with 'hands off my chair' embroidered on it and a Live Laugh Love poster blutacked to the wall.What on earth is a ‘sassy’ desk?
Are you sure that's not because you admitted a while ago that you are actually a middle aged manI read that and I swear to god, I thought it was a parody. When I need a new work mug (which I do, frequently, because I drop them and break them on a regular basis due tomy undiagnosed ADHD, dyspraxia andbeing a very clumsy person) I go to the local charity shop and buy 5 for a quid. My current work mug has 'to dearest Grandad love from Kevin' on it.
In fairness, I liked to have a personal cup at work - not because I wanted to "ooze competence, confidence, inner peace and good taste*", but because it made me ill to think that I might drink out of a vessel that that sleazy bastard Lurking Colin had had his sloppy lips** on.I can't believe they actually put that much thought into things like this

I have often wondered this**why are creepy men like this always so moist ? <shudders>
I also have my own mug at work due to the dubious hygiene of some of my colleagues. I go one step further though and also have my own teabags (Yorkshire) to ensure I dont have to drink inferior blends. I lock both mug and teabags in my desk overnight and don't give a fuck if my colleagues think I'm weird or tight. If I have to cope with their batshittery all day I need a proper brew in a clean cup.In fairness, I liked to have a personal cup at work - not because I wanted to "ooze competence, confidence, inner peace and good taste*", but because it made me ill to think that I might drink out of a vessel that that sleazy bastard Lurking Colin had had his sloppy lips** on.
I treated myself to one with a picture of a biscuit on it. I LOCKED it in my desk, because I am a fanny like that. It cost about £1.50, and I bequeathed it to the department when I left.
*"good taste" didn't enter the equation. I worked in a medical field and half of the cupboard mugs had the "Bristol Stool Scale" illustrations printed on them, one was patterned with bloodstains and "World's Best Surgeon" on it, and the rest were largely from drug companies.

I thought this! Either that or a common or garden beggar using TS tickets as a sob story.Who has seen the thread about the mum ‘pushed over the edge’ because she couldn’t get Taylor Swift tickets for her daughter’
I’m convinced that this women is a grifter, whose sole purpose in posting is to get a couple of TS tickets gifted
The sheer stupidity and naivety of some of these mumsnetters!
Yorkshire Tea is the brew of choice in Chateau Mice as well.I also have my own mug at work due to the dubious hygiene of some of my colleagues.

A weird side effect of Brexit over here (I’m in NI) is that it’s much more difficult to get Yorkshire tea unless you buy the bags that would do a catering company!Yorkshire Tea is the brew of choice in Chateau Mice as well.
Failing that, Punjana, which is also very nice, but pricier.
