Day 7 - Viewer discretion is advised!

Day 7 - Good thing bring your kid to work day was last week.

It was another typical day at work.  Buried in e-mails, trying to fix situations you have no control over and realizing EVERYTHING is a priority.  But there were a few moments that occurred where laughter simply overfilled our cubes, people who were having shitty days forgot their work problems temporarily and typically shy people turned red, but still couldn't walk away from the situation!  Those are the memories that present a fun work environment and a good day.  

I can't say that today's particular event goes under the "work life balance" category, nor can I say that the poster should be taken out of context, but - COME ON!  We are all human and I know every person who saw that poster in my building thought the same exact thing - "OMG!  Who posted this and why?  Did they READ this statement?"  For those of you who don't know this, I work for a company that develops and produces candy.  The poster was demonstrating how to blow a bubble.  You now have my permission to let your imagination run wild.  Someone (I have no idea) printed this poster and placed it right when you walk in.  The crazy thing is, is that my team can not determine if this really is a marketing ploy or if someone is just "ballsy" and printed the poster out.  FYI, the website the poster was from (which the link was at the bottom of the poster) was orallyadvanced.com
(No joke)  Marketing campaign or not, this absolutely was a topic of discussion, laughter and a little concern! 

Top reasons for the Whippany Mondelez team to be happy today: 
#1. "Put it in your mouth" 
#2. "Spread over your tongue" 
#3.  "Blow gently"
