Funny And Surprising Amateur Engineering Fixes

Good As New

Not everyone has a spare ceiling tile laying around somewhere and apparently neither did this office. So, instead of just leaving a large hole in the ceiling, they got a bit creative and used a copier to color match an envelope and just used that instead. The envelope might not be fire resistant like the inspector probably wanted, but at least it'll buy them some time to actually get a new tile.

It's actually really difficult to tell the difference, and we're left wondering if this fooled even the fire inspector. As long as they didn't reach up and touch it, we'd bet it did.
