Today in my office my manager remind me of my school days by saying this that a very important client is going to visit our office soon and the boss order him to clean and tidy the work place as much as you can so we can impress our client. So he grab hover and start hovering and ask my other colleague to clean the work tables and my duty is to arranging the things, i am quite good in arranging things in artistic way and hiding the clutter in such a way that place look very wide, bright and tidy.We all are laughing that it looks like a inspection team is coming and we have to clean the school in such a way that every thing will look great.
Any way we did spend around half an hour and make our office brand new by small small changes.When the client arrive he met boss and when technical meeting finish boss took him to our area to show him the full building, Before leaving our workplace the client ask the boss that is this place always tidy like this ? because we make it so clean and tidy that it look fake :) than our sales manager start smiling and boss hurriedly said, oh yes! and when he leave we all start laughing that our efforts work and and he think that we are always like this.
Moral of the story : If its too good to be true , its not true
