Kirsty Corporate who loves her job more than her friends and family, but does her company love her back in quite the same way?
Colin Corporate-Cliché who loves nothing more than to talk in riddles all day long, much to the annoyance of this colleagues! That is until one of them devises a plan to force him to talk in plan English!
Penny Ineffective works in HR but her colleagues have a low opinion of her, until she quite literally saves the day!
Will Workshy hates doing any actual real work, much to the annoyance of his boss. How will she convince him to change his attitude?

(Volume one)

Introducing the main protagonists in this volume:

Penny Ineffective works in HR but her colleagues have a low opinion of her, until she quite literally saves the day!

Will Workshy hates doing any actual real work, much to the annoyance of his boss. How will she convince him to change his attitude?

THE OFFICE IS A FUNNY ole’ place. It is a microcosm of wider society, played out amongst rubbish mdf desks, glass walls and broken coffee machines. From the office flirt to the corporate gossip machine, right through to the person who talks in endless clichés, the personalities you find in your average office are often funny, sometimes frightening and always fascinating.

Office Tales (Volume One) is a collection of light-hearted short stories that would make anyone who has ever worked in an office laugh out loud and nod regularly in silent agreement as they recognise the cringeworthy traits of former or even current office colleagues!

Kirsty Corporate

Colin Corporate-Cliché

Penny Ineffective
