    BT have an office with a hole in the centre of the building where you can see the ground floor cafe from the 4th floor.

    That place would also be a jumper's paradise if a person was so inclined...

      I'm undecided on how I would take my own life (if I was inclined)

      Jumping from a roof, falling off a boat, throwing ones self under a train, pills, wearing a KKK outfit around Brixton?

      Not sure if I have a preference..

        Would that be the Leeds offices? I worked there for two years and while the open center was a nice idea in practice it meant you got all the hot air and cooking smells from the cafe going up the middle of the building and into all the office areas.

          Sweetie, if you wanted out, I'm sure there would be no end of people only too willing to lend a hand
          I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this

            Is 'Death by CUKKER' suicide?

              As I have said before, a Cessna 310R set on autopilot out over the sea, playing Freebird on my Fender Strat Deluxe in the back, loaded with single malt whisky.

              Just for the irony.

                How about finding a tall building above a railway line. Wait until a train is coming, then take an overdose, slash your wrists, set yourself on fire, and jump.

                At least if you were unlucky enough to survive nobody would be saying you didn't really want to kill yourself and were just trying to get attention.

                    A one company man, hoping to see his pension from Sun Life. Out-sourced from Axa (who bought SL) to Capita last year. He moved jobs without wanting to and suffered for it, no sooner did he come back when it was announced that there were going to be redundancies. He must have thought he was going to be on the list.

                    Some souls are not cut out for this new non-loyalty, mobile way of working.

                    You're right Hugh, very sad.
