If you’ve been following The Beans for some time, you will know about my repeated attempts to bring a little culture into my otherwise blandly decorated place of work: 1, 2, 3, 4. The last of these, posted in February this year, saw me change tack to present a picture of the frame itself in the hope this would evade the attention of the joy police.
The bad news is that it did not. This latest picture has already gone, lasting only about six months, which makes it the shortest-lived of all the artworks so far displayed. But that’s OK, because while I was away, one of my colleagues has again come to the rescue. They have executed an absolute masterstroke.
Please allow me to present the picture that now adorns the frame in the men’s bathroom.
I would go as far as to say that this is more or less perfect.

This is excellent work. May I suggest that you replace it with the one you’ve taken to add another layer of depth?
I’ve decided to keep that in my back pocket ready for when this one gets removed. Always one step ahead.
Its wonderful this is bringing people together and someone else is #joiningin. This is why running a joke into the ground is so funny.
Yes. It’s a one joke joke that I will continue to hammer for as long as I’m here, both for the benefit of my colleagues and for the benefit of my bean count.
Your bean count is very important to me. If you weren’t here, well, it’d be bloody awful. Me chuntering on about crimsonly this and look at my viso/volto that.
God, it doesn’t bear thinking about. How do I do it? How do I bear to turn up and face this tidal wave of bobbins? I’m so normal and well adjusted, it’s a mystery why any of this appeals to me.
It is such a mystery. Only Mr Chang, borderline detective can solve this mystery.
I still have the card for Reuben Agency in my wallet. I could give him a call.
