Why Can’t Work Be More Like a Super Bowl Party?

Why Can’t Work Be More Like a Super Bowl Party?

Because I work at home alone, I’m always looking for new ways to procrastinate besides shop on Overstock.com. So after much important research for a Jobacle post, I came up with this idea.

With all the Super Bowl fervor, I wondered what it would be like if your office ran like a Super Bowl party?

AGENDA FOR MONDAY’S MEETING

“Let’s go over the key topics, people. Bullet points, please.”

·         Yet again, Phil forgot to bring in the guacamole for Monday’s staff meeting. Everyone knows you can’t face Monday morning without some smashed avocado and chips. Geesh, Phil!

·          A company-wide email from HR reminds us that wearing a Cheesehead is considered to be inappropriate and borders on harassment. The same goes for waving yellow things to antagonize your cube-mate. It’s important to take this seriously and be in compliance.

·         Team jerseys MUST be concealed under a blazer or sport coat.

·         Light beer only! How many times must we cover this, people? No hard stuff. This is a place of business. Oh, and none of that funny-tasting imported stuff either.

·         Jazz up those presentations. Maybe you can’t line up a Betty White for your end-of-year report, but at least get an actor from the D-list or use funny talking animals. Forget Power Point, that’s just not going to cut it.

·         Please refrain from feeding snacks to the fax machine. It took housekeeping 2 hours yesterday to get those cheese curls out of it.

·         It is against company policy to charge our vendors $900 to park in our lot. We all get to park here for free! Enterprising of you, but not cool.

 “Okay, I see Jim wants to call a time-out. Back in 5 everybody.”
