groupw Posted October 27, 2020 Share #1 Posted October 27, 2020 I had to deliver and setup a monitor at a client’s today. 2 monitor setup. One of the old monitors died. The old monitor had a square base. The new base is round. Otherwise identical to the other. I guess she is a bit OCD was not happy about the different bases, but the boss wasn’t going to buy a 2nd just for aesthetics! I decided to have a little fun with her after she went to lunch.I put a sticky note with “round” in the square base and one that says “square” in the round base. Her office mate said it was cruel genius! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I would have just looked around the office and found a similar older square base model, put that on her desk, and given the new round base one to the other person. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a joke and she will know it and laugh. I wouldn't do it strictly to be mean. There are a couple with square bases. If it really bothers her, we can swap next time I'm there. They all keep a lot of personal knick-knacks all over their desks. I only move what I have to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can be a blessing or a curse depending on how much changing they do. This office is always in a state of flux... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
