We've all been a position where we are the new person in the department. Or we've had a bad streak of unfortunate events. Trying to handle all of these emotions while staying focused at work can be difficult. But having a co-worker lift your spirits can be the reason why you enjoy going to work. What are some things you do, to lighten the day at work?
For me, I've called a "lunch pow-wow" in my department. I recognized how hard everyone's been working and realized we need to fit in some "fun" here and there. I believe that a small team builder or gathering can reset the mood in the workplace.
I'd love to hear about your experiences!
Thank you for sharing @Robin C_! I think those are great actions on your behalf. I am a huge fan of pictures or giph's that lighten up the mood. Sometimes a picture speaks more then I can.
Wow - what great ideas/habits you have there. Also what amazing willpower if you can have a lolly jar on your desk.
Loving this thread so far.
I remember when I worked on a high pressure tech support team, one our manager made arrangements for another team to cover the queue for 30 mins extra and just took us all out for coffee in a local cafe.
It was so unexpected to get 30mins off, and a free coffee, it felt so much more precious than you might expect!
