With Borr's latest memo clutched in his hand, Evander Bole stormed into his own office and sat at his desk, teeth grinding.
He read over the memo again.

I, for one, am going to put a potted tree in my office.
Have your ideas on my desk asap.

Right. Well that was nonsense. Order of MERLIN for CIRCE's SAKE! Had to be part of the perk package that D'Isigny lured the man in with.
He pulled his desk drawer open and tugged out some parchment and a quill. He scribbled out a response. Quote:
Borr,

He broke the nib of the quill on the last letter from pressing too hard.
Grumbling to himself he replaced it, then screwed up the note and vanished it before starting another one.

Borr,
It will not be necessary to make further changes to the Department of Magical Law Enforcement. It has already been redesigned to D'Isigny's suggested specifications, the work areas expanded so that the employees do not have the excuse of cramped work environments if they are not meeting expected performance criteria.
Too many changes will only serve to further disrupt the productivity of MLE, however, perhaps a potted plant or two might be placed strategically in the foyer and corridor areas, to allow a greater connection with nature, and to provide cohesion of purpose regarding environmental priorities of the Ministry of Magic as a whole.
Also, you're a dick.
Evander Bole
No. That wouldn't cut it either. Van erased the last part.

Satisfied, Van folded the parchment and placed it in an envelope, then he stood up and headed out of his office once more, locking and warding it behind him.
