Office decor (diplomas)

[Deleted]

I am going to hang my college diploma on the wall in my new office. I will also hang my Ph.D. diploma when I get it. My mom had my Phi Beta Kappa membership certificate framed, too. Do people hang stuff like this? I feel like it might look dumb, but WTF am I supposed to do with this?

[Deleted]

Sure, hang it. Why not?

[bliss]

I'd hang it.

My diploma will just be hanging in my room. I'd rather have it in an office but I don't think it's appropriate in a cube. LOL. This makes me sad.

ETA - For clarification.

Because I fear like my office would look like that post on TN where the girl went off on all her accomplishments: lettered on the swim team, Dean's list, president of some club, etc. LOL

You graduated Phi Beta Kappa, bliss?

Huh? No. I'm not even sure what that is.

ETA - I was speaking about my diploma and how I won't hang it in a cube.

You should read more carefully.

I would hang it.

It's just one more thing. It's not like you're framing an acceptance letter for a school you didn't attend or something stupid like that.

Phi Beta Kappa is a big deal, and it's already framed!

I read it just fine. I answered OPs question and added my own thoughts on hanging diplomas/certificates.

Seems reasonable to hang to me. On my office wall I have my BS diploma, JD diploma, and a certificate for serving in a board position on my law journal. They're all framed and matted the same way.

no, you didn't read the question.

She specifically asked if people hung their Phi Beta Kappa certificate. That's it.

Her question was whether to hang her Phi Beta Kappa certificate.

[ssmjlm]

I would. If you can't hang it in your office on campus, where would you?

I would have framed my offer letter for my new job to hang in my house if it didn't list my salary. I am not that tacky!

Thanks for the advice!

[HoneySpider]

I would hang it.

And yeah, I was just asking about stuff like the PBK certificate. My diplomas are DEFINITELY going on the wall!

Did *you* read my response?

I said..."I'd HANG IT." - So that answered her question. I then followed up with "Mine (as in my diploma) won't look right in my cube."

How is that not answering her question? Seriously, you're just nitpicking at stupid shit.

Perhaps, I should have said, "I'd hang it. From my understanding is an accomplishment and would compliment your diplomas nicely. I don't have an office personally so I don't get to hang my diploma. That'd look silly in a cube." Would that have sufficed? 8-D

[Mrs.Beagle]

Hang it!

MINE here directly relates to the "it"-- which, based upon her question, is the PBK certificate.

Why the fuck can't you just admit you misread the damn question?

Because I didn't misread the fucking question. I answered it. I said, "I'd hang it." How the fuck is that not answering the question?

Who knew this question would cause such a stir? LOL

[drloretta]

I'd hang it. And I'll admit I misread initially and was going to comment on the PhD diploma, but fortunately read the rest of the responses

[cjeanette]

How hard is it to say you misread something Bliss? It kills me that you will defend yourself to the death over stupid shit. Queen of backtrack you are.

[bliss]

Because I didn't fucking misread the god damn question. How hard is it to ignore me?

Something tells me a discussion of a pronoun needing an antecedent would be lost on bliss.
