So it seems the crisis has hit the UK office especially hard as can be evidenced in this article.

To summarise, staff can take up to 3 months off at 30% pay or start working 4 day weeks at reduced pay. To me this seems like some pretty creative thinking, people get a well earned break and they avoid having to put people off and the bad press associated with it. Personally I hope that they bring this policy in at our office. I have already planned out what I will do.
- Work shitty coffee shop job 2-3 days a week. 1-2 Months
- Fly to Maldives. 1-2 Months
- Possibly either mooch at one of dads hotels and live in one of the hotel villas or work on the hotel boat 1-2 days a week so that I feel useful
- Work on my tan
Speaking of boats, the StS crew ventured out on the weekend for a boat cruise, we pretty much wanted an excuse to dress with an nautical theme without any unsavoury connotations. Due to the star studded lineup other bloggers also attended this tickle fest where there was near mutiny at the mention of StS not being the superior blog in attendance.
