Welcome to Office Bantomime!

Hi, I’m James Mason, the mind behind Office Bantomime.

My journey to becoming a Change and Problem Manager has been anything but ordinary. I’ve worked on supermarket checkouts, assisted in a bowling alley, sold products in retail, hauled furniture as a removal van worker, and even tackled the high-energy world of sales. Each role gave me a front-row seat to human nature—the quirks, the chaos, and the comedy of working life.

However, it was in IT and business operations that I found my niche. From Service Desk Analyst to IT Team Leader, then Service Desk Manager, and later Relationship Manager, I learned how businesses tick, how problems snowball, and—more importantly—how to fix them. Now, as a Change and Problem Manager, I explore the fascinating world of corporate challenges, ensuring smoother operations and fewer headaches for organisations.

What is Office Bantomime?

A celebration of workplace life—the good, the bad, and the downright hilarious.

Office Bantomime is where I share fictional (but oh-so-relatable) office tales inspired by real-life workplace antics. Whether you’ve been stuck in an endless meeting, survived office politics, or just need a laugh about corporate chaos, you’ll find it here.

But it’s not just about humor. I also dive into business insights, self-help, workplace well-being, and professional growth—because let’s face it, we all need a little guidance (and comic relief) on this wild career journey.
