Back in the early 1990s I worked on a client site that had some New Age consultancy come in and make recommendations. One was to put aside an office for a masseur.
So they did.
About 10 weeks later the masseur was suddenly escorted off the premises and the room converted back into an office VERY quickly.
Although nothing official was ever said, the grapevine told us the staff in the adjoining area were getting tired of the sounds coming from the masseur's room. There was also some middle management that was very grumpy for a few weeks after her dismissal.
And for those who need an even more obvious explanation: there were two price lists, the one on the door and another you had to ask for when the blinds were closed.Drivelling in TPD is not a mental health issue. We're just community blogging, that's all.

My previous workplace did that once. The woman was awful. Maybe I asked for the wrong price list?Comment
