The story of just another day at the office

Submitter: Gert Kruithof
Description: Once upon time, there was a manager in a highly innovative company with the idea to create a large banner with a picture of the superterp in Exloo.'Think big', he probably thought. He requested Monique to take care of this challenge at a size of 6 x 3 meters. While the people of the communication department designed the final picture, Monique looked for the options for such a large banner at an affordable price and at short notice. It seemed that everything could be realised within a week, just before the required deadline of Wednesday morning.

On Tuesday afternoon, with a one-and-a-half-day of delay in delivery, the frame of the banner was ready for assembly. Soon, the people of the mechanical group discovered that six spare parts were missing so the supplier received a call from the purchase department to solve the problem. They promised an urgent delivery the same evening of these missing elements.

The next day, early in the morning, the second attempt for assembly... Luckily, no further hiccups occurred and as you can see in the picture, the result really was impressive (and ready just in time).

This could not have been realised without the help of the real heroes in this story: Roy, Jorrit, Henri, Johan, Jesper, Albert, Sjouke, Mike, Gerda and Monique!

It was just another day at the office; never a dull moment...
