Did anyone else hear the article on the radio about the Finnish (or maybe Swedish) office worker who was set very quietly at his desk checking tax returns. It seems that he died at his desk on Tuesday and no-one noticed until Thursday. How bizarre, you would have thought that someone would have noticed that he hadn't moved for 2 days!! :? :?

If he was checking tax returns, perhaps he was worried that by making a fuss, he would draw attention to himself.

This could lead to a situation where bosses paid attention to him.

This happened in Amsterdam and led to the tax men being banned from wearing white socks on the grounds of tasteful dress!!!!
