What if you work IN sports?

Can we have an annual spreadsheet or plumbing day?

Why, when talking about hypothetical scenarios or telling an anecdote, is the person always from accounts?

We all went White Water Rafting once and a few people almost died so I’m not sure we’re going to be doing any activities any more.

Or from HR, as @anon67149139 said

When I worked at a university we had a sports day every year. Never took part in the sport side of it, was just an excuse to drink all afternoon.

We do, kind of.

Last couple of summers we’ve had a summer party that consisted of going to a park, getting pissed and playing some variety of games / sports.

Last year someone broke their ankle playing rounders, had to get an ambulance. Fun times.

My work has tried to encourage various sports / It’s a Knockout type days over the last few days. Thankfully living 40 miles away and having a baby / toddler at home have been great get-outs for me.

It would interfere with my training timetable to be ready for next years parent’s race anyway

Depends if we’re laughing at or with. Accounts for the former, IP for the latter since patent twats are renowned for being an absolute fucking riot.
