The Serious Fraud Office- Yes I know!

clipped by: ratilfar
clipper's remarks: #1: But won't they be confused with the Serious Fraud Office?

#2: Oh I don't think so. One deals with stolen office supplies the other with multi-billion pound defense contracts. The difference is very clear.

#1: I see what you mean. Well good day James, have to get back to work.

#2: Take care Harold!

Harold/#1: Good morning James!

#2: The finally caught the napkin thief!

#1: Who was it?

#2: Mrs. Davis from accounting. Three packs of napkins and five, FIVE pencils.

#1: Five you say?

#2: Five.

#1: And did they catch the fellow stealing the soda from he back of the fridge in the break room?

#2: Mr. Butterscotch. I knew there was something fishy about him. To jumpy for my taste.

#1: Indeed. I guess the Office for Somewhat Frivolous Fraud will take care of them.

#2: Not really. Its the No So Serious Fraud Office now. Same chaps, different name.

#1: Well I guess they had to change the name, I mean with a word like frivolous in the title nobody took them seriously.

#2: True.
