I work on the top floor of the tallest building on Birmingham University Campus. Bit grey out today over the city so these are from earlier in the year

I should probably get the award for worst smell too. Summer heat = stink. Bin day when the whole lot gets disturbed = stink.

 

I almost never open my window, and the extractor fan above me is set to only ever set to extract, because if it gets set to intake my desk gets plastered with little dead flys. :|

 

EDIT: I've actually got a big black out blind that i normally keep permanently down in the winter, and throughout the mornings in the summer....the sun rises in that direction and burns my back if i don't have it.

No point in pulling the blinds back due to the paper on the windows that can't be removed or the 'office' will overheat in summer (or any day with sun)

 

And in any case the windows are filthy and can't be cleaned due to the mesh grills on the outside - which block the view as well

 

Can all those with views across fields , of historic buildings, of herds of majestic Wildebeat roaming over the prairie etc etc please swop??

I'm jealous you even get windows.

 

Yup same here. Surely the 'worst view' should go to those who don't have a view and they look at a brick wall all day. Hell, I never know half the time if it's sunny or raining! :lol:

Get him to wear sunglasses?

 

The window is to the side, so it would get past the sunglasses unfortunately :(... plus, I might burst into flames.

 

I just send him to the primary for 2 days and open the blinds when he's out the office mwahahahahah

 

:p

A neighbour of the school has complained that windows of a building of our look directly into his so that when he comes out of his en suite shower naked as the day he was born he can be seen by anyone in 'The House' as we call it.

 

The school has agreed to frost the windows of The House that look in that direction.

 

My Questions:

 

  1. Why doesn't he close his curtains?
  2. If it were just another neighbour [rather than a school] would he tell them they should frost their windows?
  3. What has been happening up till now? [What changed?]
  4. Why should the school pay to address an issue that is caused by his behavour?

:confused:

Sometimes it's just not worth making a fuss and for good neighbourly relations we often have to do things that don't quite seem logical.....
