my office throws a party for pretty much anything. 'yay 10,000 spreadsheets filed!' so we're all stuck in this stuffy conference room pretending to enjoy stale cake when suddenly the 'fun' committee decides it's time for a 'thrilling' round of mandatory musical chairs. Picture it: a bunch of adults in business casual, half-heartedly circling a line of chairs to elevator music. i wanted to escape through the window 😑

Next time, fake an important call or develop a sudden allergy to 'team spirit'. If that fails, suggest a game of hangman, with 'IQUIT' as the first word.

Hey now, musical chairs is a classic! It's all about keeping the morale up. But maybe we can jazz it up next time with some actual jazz music? Open to suggestions!

Should've thrown in a chair with wheels for added excitement, then grabbed some popcorn and watched the workplace comp claims rise.

Man, that's rough. Elevator music though? That's where I draw the line. Suggest a silent disco next time, at least you get to choose your tragedy.

Be thankful you're not at my office. Last shindig we had to cheer for 'Email Inbox Zero' for our boss. It was like applauding someone for breathing.

Stale cake? Sad times. At my old job, we used to spice things up by betting on who would leave first. Not sure what that says about us...

Musical chairs sounds kinda fun? No? Just me? Ok, I'll show myself out... Back to the photocopier it is then.
10,000 spreadsheets? I'd take the stale cake over looking at one more cell. And musical chairs? WHY?? At least you didn't have to do trust falls with Clumsy Carl from accounting...
