I have a brand new desk!

Featured Replies

So in case you don't know I work on a reception desk. The new one is more like a bar rather than a normal height desk, a bit odd, but I'm cool with change!

 

But

 

So far today, and its 4pm now, I have laddered 2 pairs of tights and a stocking. There's something weird with this desk, and I've had some funny looks rubbing my hands all over it trying to find what keeps snagging me.

 

Grrr.

lol... so, I assume that you have a higher chair now, or else you wouldn't be able to see over the top!!

 

Hope you are well :)

Yup, and touch screen computer, no mouse or keyboard. Its very posh!

It sounds very nice, except for the aggravation of torn tights and stockings!  That could get expensive very quickly!!

It might be an under the desk camera I would wear bridget jones pants and wooly tights if I were you :)

Lol, I can just imagine you rubbing the desk. Hope you find the tight ripper soon! I agree with Nancy -- that could get very expensive, very quickly!

I was lucky! I always keep a spare pair of tights in my bag but luckily there was a pair of hold ups in the cardboard box under my new desk (which had the contents of my old drawer in!) And they were the right colour!

 

Fishnets, not for work!

Found it! It was not at the edge but quite far under the desk! Looks like a bit of staple sticking out so I've asked the building maintenance guy to come and fix it!

Good detective work, I like it!!

Yay - the stocking killer has been identified ! - a0d0423989cfe63dbac86525c36d6b54_zpsff34. is it just me or does that sound like an 80s murder mystery !a0d0423989cfe63dbac86525c36d6b54_zpsff34

Ye pippa lol,

Cluedo, anyone remember that board game, it was mrs scarlet in the billboard room with the candle stick maker or something like that :)

LOL, The stocking killer!

 

Well maintenance guy came down with a pair of pliers and removed the offending staple!

 

My tights should be safe from now on!
