*smacks forehead*

Head of department at work took me aside as he was heading out and asked me to put a note on his desk telling him when his PA's birthday was, so he didn't miss it*. I duly wrote it on a post-it note and stuck it to the front of his diary. Next thing, he comes in to speak to (seated) PA, consulting diary held in front of her face with this note stuck to the front of it. Uhhhh.

*Although apparently he'd forgotten that he hadn't actually forgotten it this year, as I'd given him her card to sign.
