Nerf guns matter to me! (I type this while sipping on a free can of Diet Coke)

  When HQ came into the office and firing off nerf arrows (no gun required) at all of us and turned Dev and Support into a mini-nerf-warzone, it was one of the best things that happened to us. Of course, it was a Friday and we lost tons of productivity, but after all the hard work we'd been doing... we needed it. Sure, a few people got hit hard in the head and some people took a couple arrows to the mouth -- but it was WORTH IT. :) I still remember when the support manager was hired. I remember asking the hiring manager if he'd asked her if she was ok with UFO's in the office. Her: "UFO's?" (quizzical look) Me: "Yeah, uh" (ball nearly misses me) (in the distance), "INCOMING!... Did I get [inafield]" She catches the ball, laughs. Me: "No, you just about hit the new hire, she'll fit right in." [laughter]
