    Office labelling

    Hi guys. I've just wired an office from scratch, my first one. Was wondering if it would pay for me to label each socket as for what circuit it is on or is that going over board? I know if I ask my boss he'll say don't bother because I know what he's like but I would rather make a good job great.
