- GuiA 11y agoAt least you can send your son in timeout.
- BinaryIdiot 11y agoI've been in this exact situation. Fortunately I found another place to work in the same building that contained our office and I was super productive. I feel like the "no fun employee" but when you get shot 20 times a day from all the nerf Wars that break out I don't understand how anyone gets shit done. Ultimately they probably just don't (at least if it is as frequent as I ran into).
- harmegido 11y agoWait, those seriously happen? I thought examples of that were just satire. I guess there are some upsides to working in finance. That would never happen there lol.
- BinaryIdiot 11y agoI mean my 20 was probably an exaggeration but I can remember days where 10+ battles erupted around me. If it's 1 or maybe 2 times I don't mind and might even join in but on the days when it becomes excessive? I can't get anything done! Very frustrating.
- NickNameNick 11y agoIt used to happen in my office, but it was usually a friday evening thing, or in one of those awkward gaps after meetings, but before lunch, and everyone was distracted anyway.
- cableshaft 11y agoWhen I worked for a game development studio a couple guys brought nerf guns and shot people at work for awhile. It got too distracting so management put the kibosh on it after about a month, though.
- cballard 11y agoI really wish that I could kick out the office dogs, shut down the office music, and enforce library rules. I am definitely the "no fun employee".
