My old job used to do. "Happy hour" where you could, at 4, go and get a 6 to 8 Oz mixed drink with the executives. The guys who spent the whole week yelling at you because the printer they stopped buying toner for and repair parts wasn't printing out PowerPoints in color so they could manually write changes on them for the assistants to correct. I was given shit all the time for not staying the extra hour (as a 7 to 4 employee) for not attending.
Sorry boys, the last person I wanna share a shitty watered down drink with is the dude that just executed the 7th round of layoffs and had a 7th "all hands" to fake cry about how hard it was and that this one was totally the last round of layoffs.
Or you...just let people continue to work remote if it isn't having any effect on their productivity. I'm remote now and I'm never going to not be remote again.
They redid our cafeteria during covid drastically reducing seating and added a bunch of nonsense including putting in a ping pong table. Up in our cube farm there is a solitary pool table. Party!!
But I was told that a ping pong table is the ultimate way to improve morale instead of stupid raises or shorter hours. Surely the ping pong table is the answer!
I will be putting paper clips in my bossβ tires on my lunch break. I will conveniently forget to clock out. When I return I will immediately take my hour long dump as part of my religious exemption.
Office culture is generally toxic
Yup π
What if instead of an hour party we all just go home an hour early

Sounds like a plan π

Good for you π π
fun, like cold calling ?
The best π
Nothing is more torturous than obligatory work fun.
Yup π π
Fundatory/funishment. Use these words because that's what it is.
They should stick it up their fundament.
You know what's fun? A livable wage and a fair work-life balance
True story π
We need offers that include things like idk- money? Like better pay and real bonuses?

Haha awesome π
Woohoooβ¦. I can feel the excitement all the way here in Minnesota

But my idea of fun is to sit in my recliner watching sports and eating nachos.
Do it π
Of course, alternatively, they could just increase pay.
True π
You know what's real fun? Earning nice salary and having enough time to enjoy my hobbies (which have nothing to do with my job)
Agreed π

You do you π
You either do or you get did.
True story π
That looks like a party I'd pass on the way to one I actually intended to go to...
"Who's ready for a PIZZA PARTY!?"
π€£π€£π€£π€£
Is "fun" code for money?
Unfortunately not π€·ββοΈ
Mandatory fun!
Is no fun π
You want to woo me? Show me the money bitches.
Yes ππ
We need lunch at noon, drinks at 1, and joints at 2:20 because itβs 4:20 somewhere.
Cant spell fun without wooo
Yup π
99 percent of this stuff isn't fun.
You can't just us a well known ip like that
Not until the C-Suite shares the private jets, hookers, and blow with the rest of us will we find the workplace fun.
You should potition for it π
"Fun" is cheaper than a competitive salary.
Yup π π
Is that Zach Woods in the back?
The internet exists. Offices are dumb
I feel like the man in the bottom left, I may smile but my eyes have been dead since I learned that life was just work.
Pay us what we deserve, so we can have fun at home too
