in which i am frightfully amusing

This week Joan’s pal Vincenzo commenced employment at SaltMinesLimited. He’s working for my pal Heather.

And much hilarity ensued.

Mummy,

Vincenzo said he’s happy for you to send me his staff photo.

I would like to print it out and stick it up in my cubicle.

Looking forward to receiving it.

Thanks,
Joan

I know your trickster ways, young lady. If Vincenzo is happy for you to have it, he can send it.

To find it, he needs to go to the intranet and search for his name.

[screenshot redacted]

Using that search he can see everyone’s photos – including mine – which looks nothing like me.

He can also look at prior Christmas and EOFY party photos on the intranet – they are always good value.

I don’t know that I care for your slander, what are these “trickster ways” you refer to?

Perhaps I can get Vincenzo to forward me some snapshots of your trashbag sessions at the Christmas and EOFY parties to stick up in my cubicle instead.

Well, you wanted trashbag photos.


<edited to add> obviously someone’s mail server is lying about the time. I vote Joan’s.
