I’m actually lucky to have never had to go through any sort of office safety meetings. Perhaps the offices I’ve worked at have just been ahead of the curve when it comes to not walking into walls? Either way, that curve is apparently quite low when you read some of these hilarious office safety alerts.
What has this world come to when we have to send employees pamphlets warning about leaning back in chairs and sneezing while walking?
File that under sneezing and leaning back in your chair at the same time.

This is how so many offices are going now! The stories I have heard since doing this job have been ridiculous. Full on handbooks have been given out in some offices with “advice” as in your post above and things about blinking!!!

Probably once a week I nearly get bashed in the face with the door to our office by some idiot manager who walk 95 miles per hour and comes barging out just as I’m about to come in. They could use a safety seminar on how to open doors like normal people.
