The company I work for (http://snapmedia.com) announced that we were having a company retreat overnight ( a wed) and that we were needed to bring warm clothes and sleeping bags. We ended up at jungle cat world, a zoo in the middle of no where... some of us got lost and I spent the whole way to the zoo laughing at my coworkers trying to figure out where we were. Once we arrived, we spent an evening playing with wild animals (no kidding.. real tigers and baby lynxes) and then retiring to the campfire to kill a few braincells around a campfire before retiring to trailers with bunkbeds.
I had a great time. I never would have thought it would be fun... but it was a very clever event!
Our xmas holiday party is going to be a private screening for lord of the rings on the opening day. I gotta say, I'm impressed at the resourcefullness our management has for cool outings. It really doesn't cost that much to rent a vip room, but it really makes you feel good that something was thought of... instead of renting a whole bar just for the company...
I feel like somebody really put some thought into what I would want to do in my spare time.
