Funky Monkey Pants Office Tour

Hi everyone and welcome to your guided tour of the Funky Monkey Pants office.

Lets start with the important stuff. Here is our kitchen:

Complete with all facilities.

The kitchen is a big part of any workplace, it keeps us supplied with tea throughout the day (even though Bill doesn't drink tea) and even has a microwave that nobody ever uses.

If you come out of the kitchen and turn to your right you'll see the door into our office:

And a toilet on the left.

 Take a quick glance behind you and you'll see our signing in board, every time we come in we have to make sure we say we're in otherwise no one will know we're here!

Everyones in today!

Once inside you'll see our main working areas and our spacious and tidy (for now) office.

Bright, tidy and spacious, the perfect office.

To your left and slightly out of shot we have our shelving and display desk where we keep a number of our products out for people to see if any customers should happen to come down. Straight ahead we have Bill's desk and the packing desk and to the right we have our stock shelving and Emma's desk.

Lets go take a closer look around!

A colourful display.

Here is our display area. It takes a long time to set up a good display and when you sell as many products as we do it takes some serious time to get it looking good. We think we did a good job though. Even though we're an online retailer we like to keep a good display up in case anyone comes down to our office; which is totally okay for anyone who wants to come visit us by the way, we love visitors and you can buy stuff straight from us.

On the bottom right of the above picture there you can probably spy the arm of a sofa. We have the sofa for when people come into the office but it's also home to two permanent residence of our office...

It's Oobicoo and Baby Bill!

Oobi and Baby Bill (who as you can guess is named after the adult Bill) are our constant companions in the office and get a regular change of cloths courtesy of Elowen, today Baby Bill is sporting a Monopoly pattern nappy and some Inch Blue shoes. Very fashionable.

Next up we have Bill's desk:

Neat and tidy as always.

Bill likes to keep his desk nice and tidy and despite Emma's best efforts he does manage to do so a good amount of the time. Bill uses his desk the most but when he isn't around and Elowen is, she likes to take it over and cover it with stuff. Also you'll notice Bill's Lifebottle on the desk which he brings into work and puts in the same spot every day.

Opposite Bill we have the packing desk:

Orders ready to go!

Having a packing desk was part of an idea to increase efficiency and keep all our postage and packaging stuff in one simple place in the office and so far we think its work great!

Finally we have Emma's desk:

Complete with printer and drawers!

Emma's desk is where all the paper work happens which is for the best really as there is plenty of space to spread out. Emma's desk also comes complete with a bookshelf for filing and comfy swivel chair for those long paper work sessions.

That concludes the tour of our office, we hope you enjoyed it! If you fancy having a tour in person remember you can always come down to the office and we'll show you around!

Next time we'll be meeting the team so keep checking back!
