I'm confused; what exactly was the problem with the picture? No environmental personalisation permitted? Yeah, like that keeps people loyal and motivated.
Middle management causes Nazism. FACT.

It seems your bosses have no sense of humour.
Desktop wise my crew are unable to change their backgrounds from the set RN wallpapers, but as far as photos and posters go as long as they are not deemed to be racist or otherwise offensive on the grounds of gender, sexuality etc, I will pretty much turn a blind eye unless we have an inspection due, in which case the crew know to clear the decks.
I have drawn the line at pictures from Nuts and Zoo magazine, because I personally find them offensive even if some of the women in my crew say they don't mind.
Gary Larson is popular with many staff across the base.

Nil Illigitimi Carborundum, if you don't mind. There's always more than one Illigitimus who's trying to carborundum.  |
Or even 'nil illegitimi carborundum'

Why not have some new ones up
You don't have to be mad to work here but it helps

Failures do what is tension relieving, while winners do what is goal achieving.
In adversity, remember to keep an even mind.
If you don't know where you are going, you'll end up someplace else.
and other such utter tripe that'll make you go postal... your boss will love them and wont realise you're taking the wee-wee
