Chair
Hi, my name is Chair and I'm a chair. I do lots of exciting stuff like being sat on and being put on desks at the end of the day so the cleaners can do their job. Some people even hang their coats and bags on the back of me. It's great!
The work I do is really important - without me you'd all be sitting on the floor getting your jeans dirty.
