The Rural Payments Agency have fired four staff and disciplined five others after reports of naked filing cabinet hurdling, amongst other pranks. The Register reports that:

Allegations that staff hid vomit in the office in order to fester was borne out by investigators, with four cups of sick confirmed. The report also reveals: "There have been incidents involving faeces, female sanitary products and mucus deposited."

I am so very, very glad I don't work there...

Well, really, why even come to work if you can't jump around naked, store vomit and other bodily fluids, and generally have a little good clean fun?

"..sounds to me like they weren't quite repressed enough."

Yep, some people just need a good repressing every now and then.
