We need to talk to the author and culprit....
No word of a lie, we had this email sent around out office this morning (and I quote verbatim):

"A member of this Company has just committed an act of the most unacceptable disgusting behaviour I have ever had the misfortune to witness!
In the Gents 6th floor someone has excremented (and not just a little bit) on the floor of one of the cubicles, has trodden in it and just walked away! Obviously it has had to be cleared up! My staff are NOT employed to clean this type of mess and I would not have expected this to have occurred! Whoever has done this I hope you are ashamed, it was extremely unpleasant for us especially as ladies to go in and clean it up!"

For me this raises four questions;
1. To the culprit - why did you undertake aformentioned dirty protest?
2. Again to the culprit - why did you tread in it?
3. To the email author - Why was she a witness?
4. Also to the email author - Is excremented actually a word?

By the way, no-one has been around to sniff our shoes yet.
