"Humor is a spontaneous, wonderful bit of an outburst that just comes. It's unbridled, it's unplanned, it's full of surprises."

-- Erma Bombeck


 

Page-A-Day Fun

A California company promotes a fun and healthy work environment by distributing page-a-day calendars on different subjects to each of their staff members. The calendars range in subject matter from Wheel of Fortune puzzles to Dilbert cartoons to gardening tips. Since everyone's calendar is different, curiosity runs high. Staff members have been known to take breaks during the day to solve Wheel of Fortune puzzles on someone else's calendar.

Step #11: Become Known as "Fun Loving"

Points to remember:

  • Use fun as an excuse to take a break and spontaneously celebrate good work and good effort.

Fun is a simple phenomena -- anyone can participate. Fun doesn't require special training, it won't necessarily cost you money, and the benefits are infinite. Plus . . . it can have a positive impact on the lives of people you work with every day.

We suggest you try to implement just one of the steps each month. By the end of the year, you'll be on your way to a healthy and happy workplace.
