You know the free paper that gets put through your letter box every week that you throw out without reading, well I was just about to throw one out when I spotted this.

Now, I reckon this ad was thought up by a man. And maybe one who likes his ladies in high heels. I mean, you could have had blokes in hobnailed boots for example. Or for the ladies, muscular hairy calved rugby players in boots. Has anybody else noticed that the models used in most office equipment catalogues are female? Especially when it comes to featuring footrests and cable protectors. It is always a pair of high heels that are used. Sorry, rambling a bit here, but this has reminded me of a safety poster we had at a previous company about 10 years ago. It was to emphasise safety in accessing things on shelves. There was a gorgeous pair of nylon clad legs wearing some lovely high heeled sandals, standing on a pile of telephone directories. And it was quite a large poster too. I would have pinched it but was afraid they would have noticed. Anyone else seen this? Or anything similar? Bearing the 'Overtime' story, perhaps it should have been a man she was standing on.

Now I wonder why Gerryl mentioned RUGBY players for the ladies?? By the way it's the thighs not the calves!!!
