Dozy NHS workers have been suspended and could be sacked for posting pictures of themselves on Facebook playing the Lying Down Game.
The workers at the Great Western Hospital in Swindon snapped themselves lying down on resuscitation trollies, ward floors and a helipad. Fifteen other workers were involved in the game during a night shift last month.
They then uploaded the pics to a special group on Facebook where hospital bosses were alterted to them.
For the uninitiated, Guru has sourced the rules of the Lying Down Game: To play, contestants must lie face down with the palms of their hands flat against their sides and the tips of their toes pointing at the ground. The random act of lying down in busy places is designed to confuse people, and contestants are awarded extra kudos for the more people involved and the more unusual and public the location.
So Guru expects disciples to start playing now. As for the hospital workers, Guru thinks they now have extra time on their hands to practise their technique.

Another fun one is standing facing away from the door in a lift. Due to subtle social pressure this is very hard and confuses people A LOT. Doubt you'd get sacked for it either :-)
All the best from Brighton,
