4 days, probably 8-6 each day
A WORLD OF NO. When asked to suggest team-building activities for my group, mine was "Everyone leave early and engage in private self-reflection in their own home."
Theo, hope all goes smoothly for your friend.
Wash: I'm not leaving her side, Mal. Don't ask me again. Mal: I wasn't asking. I was telling.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
And for lunch, we can do something fun! Like a lunch and learn!

Lol!
I have a huge case of don't wanna today. No particular reason. Just...meh. I should really drink my coffee, yeah?

I'm avoiding a call with my coworker so I can watch the end of Hoarders. So you're still ahead of me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh god, they're talking about a team summit where our global team would meet up. 4 days, probably 8-6 each day. Those would be...long days.
Yeah, that's going to be a hard no from me.

Because books.
Congratulations on the job offer, husband of Dana (and Dana)! Less congratulations on the possible global team summit. ::shudders::
It's my day off, and I have a thousand things to do, but I'm sitting here wrestling with making a playlist in the VLC media player because I'm also waiting for the mechanic to call about the car (which popped a ball joint and made the tire sort of fall off yesterday). Mostly waiting to hear how much $$ it's going to be. Someone hold me.

Who are the people who actually think team-building exercises improve employee morale and productivity? I've never heard of anyone on the receiving end who didn't dread them.

Our wings are not tired.
I hope the carfix is easier than anticipated.
Apparently team-building was something that happened after I left the corporate world. Here team building is more like deciding to take a break and go out to lunch or watch some tv.

They probably saw something tyhe Japanese were doing and decided to give it an American *twist*! Said with the perky head tilt and grin familiar from commercials.

My team has good team building. Sometimes we go out to lunch, paid for by work, and when we have long meetings like the 9-3 retreat we had last week, we do some goofy activities which are actually fun. Because they take 10 minutes and aren't overly personal or strenuous.
