Humor is Important

Every other Friday, we do what we call a "Payday Pizza Presentation" where one of our team members makes a presentation on a topic we think would be of interest to everyone while we all eat free food.  Sometimes its about internal processes, at other times it may be about industry dynamics, technology trends, social media ideas, etc.

Today, we had a discussion about a project we're working on that is close to launching.  As part of it, the individual making the presentation discussed the goals of the project and introduced it with a parody he created of a Despair.com poster.  (BTW, those guys produce some very funny stuff and I encourage you to check out their offerings.) 

That slide in the presentation -- reproduced above -- had the whole team in stitches.  Just a little reminder that humor plays an important role in the workplace.
