to ask you to help with my office battle?

[CopperHandle]

Bloke and I at work having A Dispute over a fiver.
He believes that the fiver is mine, I believe that it is his.
Cue the Fiver War of 2017.

So far he has hidden the fiver between the keys of my keyboard, in my office trainers (kept under my desk) and tucked in the grid cover of my desk fan.

I have stuck it under his mouse (covering the sensor) and taped it HEAVILY with washi tape (brightly coloured masking tape) to his desk.

Fiver is currently on my desk.

I need HELP, please lovely Mumsnetters - I am very competitive in need of a win this week

My eyes have literally rolled out of my head.

I'm typing this with my nipples.

Worra that is the funniest thing I have ever read on MN

Could the 'im sorry/i feel bad' whatsapp message actually mean he feels bad cos he managed to somehow get it into ur underwear draw...i cant imagine how! But he wins hands down. Have u been in a meeting n left your keys? Honestly, i am that competitive that I would possibly do something this bizzare! I would take that 5er from drawer, (checking serial number for any further 'coincidences'. Hide it again with a note saying 'nice try'

I need to read the Nanny/ bloodman thread. Anyone able to link it? Please.

I remember the Colorado cabin one very well - It's a good one

Thanks Shoes

I think he liiiiiikes you

Keep the fiver in a really obvious place on your desk, while stashing ANOTHER fiver at the bottom of the bottom drawer of his desk.

Gotta do the bunting idea!

Give it to charity and do some feckin work!

Oh I see, it's one of these. Teach me to post before reading to the end.

Take a picture of the fiver and set it as his work computer wallpaper.

he def likes you. are you single too?

Pop it in an envelope and post to his house?

I find it hard to believe you have the maturity to keep a job.... seriously.... this sounds like something my 8yr old would find funny.

Not placemarking at all this has made me chuckle

Surely you've done your Facebook stalking by now?? Single??

Agree to split it over a drink? No idea how it started but dh and I have this competitive thing to not take the last bit of naan or poppadom etc. When it gets small, we break what's left in half and keep going until it's no longer possible and the last bit has to be eaten, making that person the loser.... I understand your pain. How about under desk phone or any other object large enough to cover. It will be on his desk and you can look smug. Eventually he'll ask and you can then say you gave it back on his desk...cue searching for ages. Fun.

I'm hoping this guy isn't my husband

....Or someone's husband! Mines a software developer/tester! It would be highly unlikely though but you never know his other half might be on here! I think you should swap it for pennies and hide them everywhere and he can't pass the £5 to you until he finds the lot ha

I love this thread. Romantic or what except for the typing nips.

Hah! Yes, suggestions of breaking into someone's home and creeping through their underwear drawer is suuuuuper romantic

He likes you and you deffo like him!

When I was an office worker I always had an 'office husband', it just makes the day go that bit faster.

Next time you hide the £5 write the time, day & venue of a date on it....

Get on the case OP before miserable receptionist nabs him

P.S.
YANBU, this is fun!

Did you check inside the mouse?
A wireless mouse has a battery compartment and often a space for the little dongle that goes into your computer...perfect for hiding a fiver inside.

I bloody love this thread, already looking forward to Monday evening and secretly hoping for a mega romance ending in a life together! But I won't mention that again!!
