Getting Creepy at Work
So…is there a vampire sitting next to you at the office today?
Turns out many are doing the Halloween thing today, wearing costumes to work..just like the kids do at school today.
Our Sherry Morley hit the streets this morning..and most people she talked to were getting into the spirit - from donning a Kitchener Rangers uniform, a bunny outfit..
or even showing up as Darth Vader.
Our workplace is taking part in the outfit thing today as part of a United Way fundraiser. We have Hannibal Lecter, the Richard Gere character from an Officer and a Gentleman, to scary pirates.. to an 80’s lounge dude complete with hairy chest and gold chains!
Workspaces are also decorated up, complete with goodies and sound effects.
Not everyone is digging this day at the office though.
The workplace experts say costume donning on the job can crossover to the darkside.
The worry - some outfits may offend.
Some career coaches disagree and says it’s all about good team building.
The funniest bit on wearing costumes on the job comes today from the Globe and Mail..under the headline “What Spooks Workers at the Office”?
A U-S survey finds 34 percent of workers say the boss is the scariest…
25-percent say a co-worker is just plain scary.
Have a safe night.
