As it's my last day in the office tomorrow, I was having a little think about just how "lovely" it has been to work here. It set me off on a bit of a twitter rant - helpfully summarised for you here. I should stress, these are all actual things that go on on a daily basis (and yes, that includes those things near the bottom of the list that are at best inappropriate and at worst, possibly criminal). So let me begin......
