Midget Posted August 3, 2009 Posted August 3, 2009 DB> i assume this is Regus? They did that to me too. Shown 2nd floor office with view over a garden, and then get a smaller ground floor office with views of the bins in the alleyway (so no light)

I'll see what they do when I give them my notice to quit at the end of the month. by all accounts they are desperate for companies to stay, and the anoyign thing is that the office they showed me is still vacant!
SpuffMonkey Posted August 3, 2009 Posted August 3, 2009 Mortal Engines Quartet Absolutely brilliant series of books that are far too good for the older children that they are purportedly aimed at. Set in a steampunk world where tracked cities chase and devour each other, the books follow Tom and Hester through various adventures up to a stunning climax. Why a merely "OK" writer like JK Rowling is huge while Reeve isn't is one of the mysteries of life. His Larklight series and the prequel to "Engines", along with his revisionist take on Arthurian legend are also well worth seeking out. Seconded - brilliant set of books! Reading the new Fever Crumb at the mo.
Midget Posted August 4, 2009 Posted August 4, 2009 Correct.

The only thing they understand is witholding payment and leaving. As a hint, the people you are dealing with are not passing any problems up the chain, you will have to contact the regional manager yourself.

He could always invite the reginonal manager into the office for a meeting about it and leave briefly, with the door accidentally locking behind him. See how acceptable a room with no window is then
Ric_ Posted August 4, 2009 Posted August 4, 2009 My office window is about 7ft from the floor, so if i wanted to look out, I would have to climb my desk. lol Make sure you do a risk assesment first, have three points of contact at all times and, preferably, wear a high-vis vest and hard hat
john Posted August 8, 2009 Posted August 8, 2009 He could always invite the reginonal manager into the office for a meeting about it and leave briefly, with the door accidentally locking behind him. See how acceptable a room with no window is then I think that's deemed illegal, but there is something in the H&S Act about working in rooms without natural light for over so many hours a day I believe which you could find to your advantage....
