From the supervisor was an email as follows:
A complaint has been made towards FMO for inappropriate material on walls. I have removed all the material and no more is to put up on walls. Sorry but it was bound to happen.
One of the "offending" items was a Hawaii calendar that had been up for SEVEN YEARS STRAIGHT! The photography and settings were phenomenal, but some snowflake that likely should never been allowed in the shop thought it somehow inappropriate.
No nudity, no blatantly provocative posing by the models, just great photos.
Even an OLD poster from the 1970's with a bunch of loggers on a monster stump was removed.
At least the small print of the (now deceased) shop's cat is still here.
Aargh, and UNNNNGH!
Just venting, thought I'd share it here.
English translation of the the thread title please!
Aw Darn!
Okay, thank-you, for the correction.

They're a lumberjack and they're OK.
We have a policy that nothing is on the walls except company materials.
It was mostly enforced to prevent union organizing. My first experience in this was 1986. So this is not new.
We did not use that reason as the public reason—it was to prevent to possibility of conflicts.
If you are in “a shop” my guess is that is the real reason. When I was the nerdy kid in the office, I tried to sell the given reason. Now I just don’t let them tape stuff to the wall because I don’t want to pay to paint the wall when they change the posters.
Sensitivity training has gone to far. I am offended by people who can’t wear the pants pulled up and held in place suspenders or a belt. But I won’t demand that they pull them up. I’m offended by people who drive expensive cars. I won’t demand they drive less expensive cars. I am offended by environmentalists who fly all over the world, and live in excessively large houses but I won’t demand their planes grounded and houses destroyed. IN THE USA WHAT GIVES YOU THE RIGHT TO DEMAND OTHERS HAVE TO SURRENDER TO YOUR OFFENDED WHIMS! THESE XPOILED TOTALITARIANS NEED TO GROW UP.
