Now that three noticeboard have been installed near the lifts on every floor in our building, we will be populating them soon with informative materials.

Such as, presumably, Don't use the lifts unless you're happy to be stuck in them for a while.

Anyway,

1. The notice board with perspex cover on the right will have OH&S info together with Emergency procedures and contacts

2. The notice board in the middle with perspex cover will have a floor plan
with room numbers and a directory of those whi occupy these rooms

3. The notice board on the left without the perspex cover will carry
temporary notices for general use that will be removed on a regular basis.

These will be the perspex covers of which two (at least) were screwed on so tight that this morning, before any notices went in them, they were already broken.

I like the implication that the notices that are actually useful or interesting will be removed on a regular basis, and are not protected by (broken) perspex. Given the state of our lifts and air-conditioning, we're not really surprised.

About the Rat

Black Knight is interested in the interaction of science (as a day job and as a way of thinking) with his family, the wider community and literature. And tormenting students. Frequently polemical, sometimes serious, and hopefully always entertaining more
