Okay, cool The idea, as I see it, is things you've done in your workplace, that you've done for people to try and spot quirky that may go unnoticed for a long time payoff is when people spot it as the case may be Anyway, it's str My brother's really open this.

I don't think it's Robper's idea, but I don't think Rob's going Yes, yes S yeah, I knew it would work. I knew I think it's been the nail in the coffin if I'll be honest the sign stayed like that for weeks before somebody noticed the face then it was all everyone could talk about Everyone finding it hilarious. say so much so I'm doing a few more signs Oh you stupid man, Jake. got fucking over carried away.
