Yes, just so TBT, I've lost count of the number of times I have been "interviewed" for inappropriate antics, not that I was ever blameworthy of course I don't have time nowadays though, I'm not in the office long enough and most of the time there's no one there.
Some of the tales would make your hair curl maisy. I was once in a group that was "isolated" from the rest of the office because our behaviour was questionable and completely unacceptable, there was about seven of us, kept on a different floor to everyone else - but only for 4 years or so

That sounds bad DV....like something out of the American Penal System! Did the Management come in Regularly and Hose you down with a Fire Hose and make you s**t in a Bucket in the Corner? I hope they issued you with sunglasses when they eventually released you from your solitary confinement?
Mind you if you were stuck with your like minded mates it was probably great not having to put up with the other dick heads in your office.

None of the staff would come down, managers only when they had to. They sometimes sent newbies down, they didn't last more than 2 weeks. Even old hands wouldn't stay down with us. Mind this was long before DRAW, looking back though We were always the last to leave because of the messing about. One of the lads was actually undergoing psychiatric treatment - he fitted in really well! I don't know if it was everyones good old days but we certainly had a good time.
