I know everybody loves a cardboard box – so that’s why we in Manuscripts are giving away about 30. They’re 39 x 34 x 25 cm as per attached photo.

First come first served – when they’re gone, they’re gone.

We too have a "People" department. It's very difficult grammatically when you're talking about a singular entity that has a plural title.

I always felt (maybe cynically) that the shift from personnel to human resources reflected a shift from management dealing with people to dealing with units of labour that could be moved around or disposed of much as any other resource required for production, with little regard for the implications of those decisions on the sentient beings involved.

Agree. Our HR has just been rebranded as 'People and Culture' and my husband once worked somewhere where it was called 'People Squared'

Purple bicycle shed closed permanently

Please be aware that the purple bicycle shed (behind the Finance department) is now closed permanently. The bicycle shed by the helicopter pad is still available to use.

[bad news for anyone with a purple bicycle]
