The Boss Is On Vacation (Pt2)

So this is the second part of the boss being gone, and the awesomeness that it entails. This part of that whole situation is the amazing amount of fun that is now had at the office on a Saturday.

Normally for some reason we still try to have fun at the office on Saturdays. I think it's the combination of the people being there all knowing that we would rather be somewhere else, and the eventual realization that if we all do our best to have a good time at least the day will seem that much better. We crack some jokes, we will play around at times, etc... Typical office humor that nobody would be shocked by. Nothing that would make HR gasp, but at the same time it isn't just business as usual. We "loosen up the ties a bit" if I had to put a term to it.

Today we took the ties off... Literally and figuratively. Laughing most of the day and then getting out a little earlier than we had planned to boot. It seemed like a productive day and at the same time we all spend so much time laughing. At one point I was laughing so hard that I was crying. And this is at work...

The boss' vacation has turned out to be one of the best times at the office ever. :-)
