Work Stress Part 2: Add fun to the work place

My Favorite Work Stress Reliever KAOS This is my personal favorite, something we use to do at university. You may need to be working in a bigger company to do this well, but you can adapt it for smaller businesses. K.A.O.S or killing as an organized sport. But you don't kill anyone... Grab a water pistol and get ready. Firstly you must set the rules and guidelines. But the basics are simple. You each get a name, preferably an alias or fictitious person. This is the person you are trying to kill (remember - pretend kill). You each have the name, a clue to who they are - their particular role, a personality trait, a visual clue or whatever. You then have to seek them out and try to shoot them with the water pistol. In a large corporation, a photograph where they disguise themselves is good. Sounds easy, but a few rules make it complicated and harder to achieve.... 1. You can't shoot them at their desk around electrical items (this is a safety issue - remember, electrocution doesn't count as a kill, and the authorities may ask a few questions) 2. You must identify yourself as their assassin, before you shoot. 3. No head shots - only body shots and they must be able to be clarified by an observer. 4. You miss, you lose. 5. Wrong person, you lose. 6. You are observed by an observer already dead or not playing - you lose. 7. You lose; you must give the opponent your person to shoot. They then have two choices on who to assassinate. So you have to be sneaky and ready to kill or be killed. Others will try to kill you when you may be lurking around a corner waiting for your target to arrive. You may get shot in the back while stalking another. The goal is to be the last one standing. As you kill someone, you get their person. However, if you are caught trying for a kill, the next person has their target and yours. So they have two people to get, which gives them more chances as to who to aim for and when. This is supposed to be fun, no aggression, no fighting, just fun. So be aware of those you may annoy if they don't want to play. If you have computers or electrical appliances that may create a problem, ban areas like these for playing. Or don't use a water pistol; try sticking post-it notes to peoples backs without them noticing. Harder, but more invention, skill and cunning is required. But adapt this or modify this to play KAOS in your workplace. Have a trophy to play for, introduce other sports similar and play for the overall champion. So ... Have fun at work, laugh more, enjoy the company of your fellow workers. With less stress and more fun in the workplace ... The boss will appear more approachable, workers will appear happier. But the workplace will thrive. More enjoyment, more understanding of everyone's stresses, a collective approach to a lot of work issues. But staff will tend to talk more; issues won't be swept under the table, but kept in the open and dealt with early. A fun activity and beneficial for the workplace as a whole. Best of all, something to look forward to at the end of a busy day, week and month. Fast Stress Relief is dedicated to teaching you ways to remove stress; simply, easily and quickly.
