While honesty is often described as 'the best policy', there are those of us who aren't so sure. Being honest is a noble thing but when you've irrevocably buggered things up at work, surely honesty will only land in you in yet another world of trouble. So, you might want to consider living your life - working life at least - by a code that has served many generations of politicians well enough, allowing them to reap the benefits associated with office, while never having to take responsibility for the royal mess they've made of everything.

The code? Well, it's simple and spelled out in unmissable white lettering on our executive sign: "Never do today that which will become someone else's responsibility tomorrow". So leave put off sending that email, or writing that report, provided you can blame it on someone further down the food chain tomorrow, it's all ok.

Responsibility is, frankly, overrated and the less of it that comes your way, the better. So put a sign up to let everyone know your stance on the subject, then there can be no accusations of back-stabbing or such like. You've pointed it out, you've even got a handy man-running-for-an-exit motif on there, so even the most illiterate of employees will appreciate your standpoint. Go on, you owe it to yourself.

Sign measures 40 x 15cm.
