Being a white collar salaryman during daytime it is a nice to have changes in the daily routines. Today my highlight was the assembling of some nice Ikea furniture to store my office supplies in. So, some real men’s work for change.
I had a strict goal: my colleagues had done this in a hour, so I had to beat them or at least be as fast as them. I have assembled a lot of Ikea stuff in my time, some my own and some of friends. And I have always hated it. I mean, you don’t actually need tools, which a so cool to use, especially power tools. And the material is often so weak that if you don’t read the instructions (RTFM!) you will bend and break some parts, that’s fi jeezy.
So here is a short photo collage of the process, it took me exactly 59 minutes, so I beat the 1 hour limit. I guess now I’ve earned that Cobra beer I had during the lunch.
