Playing Games At Work
Posted December 1st, 2009 at 10:42 PM by Onacara
I am on a comittee at my company thats purpose is to come up with fun things for the employees to help keep morale up. We do everything from Costume Contests at Halloween to Karaoke Contests to Company Picnic etc.
One of the things I proposed to the comittee today during our monthly meeting was to have a Board Game cart in the cafeteria where employees can play a game duing their lunchbreak with co-workers. We are going to rely alot on folks donating games to the cart and will have a small budget to purchase some other games.
We are probably going to start off with things like Scrabble, Boggle, Dominoes, Chess, Backgammon and the like. I will also have a Game Request list on the cart where folks can ask for new games to be added to the cart.
Hopefully I can use this to flush out some hidden gamers to play things like Summoner Wars :wink:

You got volunteered for the EAC (employee activities comittee)?! Man, I've been doging that for 4 or so years, now. So far so good.
I played MtG with some dudes at one of my jobs although it wasn't a desk job....good luck with your evil plans! Brandon |

My fiancee is on the EAC for her company. It's great, I get to show up whenever the activity is "go out for drinks" or go to the steak house, etc.

I'd love to design this stuff! Okay, I kinda already do (this is HeroScape ya' know) but it'd be really great to get PAID for it. That's the kind of "playing games at work" I'd like to do.
At my job I don't get paid by the hour so I try to hurry up and get home. I don't play games on my lunch break; I don't even really have a lunch break. |
