The ones that are juiced will have a built in excuse to get **** faced at the party. They can trade banners when they want to sober up.
I remember my past company doing "team building" stuff like this, very embarassing (or is it embarrasing).
I work in the health care industy. I have access to tons of syringes.
Team building stuff?
I agree, I hate all that bullshit.
But, these are 15 people who have worked with each other anywhere between 5 and, oh...20 years.
They aren't looking at this as one of those team building exercises, but as a big goof. THEY were the one's who asked for it, not their boss.
It was one of their ideas to dress as a monk, and when I mentioned the syringes and said that "Joe" would be the perfect person to get one, she said "hey, I want one too!"
To them, it's wearing something comfortable for a dinner meeting, and getting to joke around and get laughed at and with dozens of other people they know.
I hold no illusions the laurel crowns will come off immediately. They will get given to their kids and grandkids, as well has the gold medals, when they get home.
For them, it'll be the equivent of joking around on a thread here, participate to whatever degree you want.
