Reynholm Industries Identity Cards

Imagine that you’re hooked up to an IV (Intravenous) drip for an hour. You’ve read all the books you have and need more. You’re sick of music and on-line Christmas shopping. So the question is: ‘What the hell do you do for an hour?’.

Well, on this occasion I found myself thinking about the various TV programmes I’d seen over the last couple weeks and ended up thinking about last Friday’s repeat showing of a classic. The programme in question was ‘The IT Crowd’. It’s an absolute brilliant episode where Roy & Maurice give Jen a hand with an upcoming speech by introducing a small diversion to help overcome her nerves.

The diversion? A small tin box that Jen believes holds The Internet. Jen has totally no knowledge of IT, so is completely taken in. Anyway, the plot is not the important thing here – what is important, is that my thought processes ended with JackP. I know, I know…not a pleasant subject to be thinking about at any time; but, in this instance, very relevant.

I remembered that Jack had published a post about Reynholm Industries and getting your very own company ID card. Unfortunately, he didn’t exactly tell you how to obtain such a card but did leave a tantalising clue.

I remember leaving a comment boasting that I too would obtain my very own card. Due to unforeseen medical difficulties however, I had completely forgotten about it…until now, that is.

So, deciding to fill in my time in a (semi) productive manner, I hopped over to the Reynholm site.

It was a shock to my system…I did find out how to get my own card but, unfortunately, so had my bloody dog…errr….I’m sorry; I meant, of course, to say: so had my beloved canine companion Coy!

Don’t believe me? Check it out ye disbelievers:

Reynholm ID card for Coy.

Reynholm ID card for Gary.

What’s worse, is that the canine clown genius has given himself a superior position to me and his photo is better than mine…cheeky sod!
