All the fun of the chair

There was a mini revolution involving chairs here at Happy recently, and I don't mean the kind of chair revolution where you spin round as fast as you can and see how long the spin lasts before you need to kick off again. Although that kind is a lot of fun.

Some fancy schmancy new chairs were bought for the building, and everyone got them except for us here in Happy eLearning (and Helpline, and ITQ), so a Strongly Worded Email was sent to Henry. I'd like to make it clear that no threats were issued, as you will see from this excerpt from the threatening- er, the polite email: "Naturally, a series of strikes, sit-ins, and letters to Amnesty International would be a *last* resort, but I hope that we can resolve this without involving solicitors, or the police."

Thankfully, Henry saw sense, and informed us that new chairs would be ordered, and in the meantime, we could take some from a training room. So in a daring raid, the Happy eLearning team swapped their dodgy old chairs with some of the lovely new ones from training room 6. It was like something out of the A-Team (but with no car chases or helicopter attacks or that bit where they all get locked in a warehouse and build a big tank out of old pencil cases and rubber bands).

I did a recon mission first, to see how the ground lay, and made sure we had a safe path. Once the coast was clear, I gave the rallying cry of "GET... THE COMFY CHAIRS!", which I've always wanted to say (if you know what TV show that's from, you can be in my special gang). Then we all ran to the room with our old chairs, took the new ones, and brought them back here, where we put sticky labels on them with our names on. Chairs have a habit of going missing (and occasionally on fire) from this office, so we weren't taking any chances. The mission was successful, and we're now all sitting on our lovely, comfy chairs, and working 1% harder. To show what we all got so obsessed about, here is Nik enjoying the fruits of our theft, I mean, our perfectly justified chair-swapping:



Pretty impressive, eh? But that's how we roll, here in Happy eLearning. That's how we roll.
