Office maladies- it gets worse

Apropos my previous post about spurious sick days, comes this gem.

The Department of Labour decides to have their end of year function with a carnival theme, and have advertised this with some clown photos. Apparently this was too much for one poor woman, who is scared of clowns, and insisted on having the posters taken down. Talk about your pseudo-illness.

Note also that another woman was allowed to set up a creche in the office, often resulting in her co-workers having to look after the brat.

Our work christmas party is going to be a "Hawaiian luau" theme- it's already making me feel nauseated and anxious. Reckon I could get it cancelled?

Lameopartiphobia-morbid fear of forced socialising with public servants wearing Hawaiian shirts.
