Squirrelinabox — Tue, 20 Jan 2009 04:53:53 +0000

With 40 total votes, it appears to be a near tie between those that did have a holiday party and those that did not. The results are below.

Did your company throw a holiday party?

Yes (53%, 21 Votes)
No (48%, 19 Votes)

While some may dread having to attend a company holiday party, I personally like the idea of having some sort of year-end party to loosen up and have a good time. Obviously, this is especially the case when a holiday party can be thrown and attended during work hours.

New Poll: Did your company throw a holiday party?

With many reports about companies cancelling their holiday parties due to the slumping economy, I’ve decided to post up a poll asking you all about your own experiences. Did your company have a holiday party or were you left out in the cold?

The company I work for did not have a party, though we are quite small and didn’t have one last year either. I didn’t really expect one, though a small little hurrah to end the year is always a nice morale booster.

More Prankers Than Prankees

While about 80% of you said that you’ve pranked a coworker, only 55% have actually being on the receiving end of a work prank.

Have you ever been pranked by a coworker?

Yes (55%, 24 Votes)
No (45%, 20 Votes)

I did expect the number of “prankees” to be a bit less than the 80% found for prankers, but apparently the difference is actually quite a lot. It must be nice to be able to pull off an office prank without retaliation – though you’re victims may all be plotting their revenge at this very moment!

New Poll: Have You Ever Been Pranked by a Coworker?

The last poll asked you whether or not you have ever pranked a coworker. Well. This time we find out if you have ever been on the recieving side of an office prank. So let’s have it. Have you ever been pranked by a coworker?

I definitely have been pranked a few times – though none have ever been all that bad. Most have been pretty tame pranks involving messing with my computer… nothing too elaborate. It’s actually been awhile since I’ve been pranked – perhaps I need to start a prank war or something.

80% of OHB Readers Have Pranked a Coworker

Last week’s poll asked you whether or not you’ve pranked a coworker – the final results are below.
Have you ever pranked a coworker?

Yes (80% – 45 Votes)
No (20% – 11 Votes)

I’m please with the turnout considering it was this blog’s first poll. Obviously the results are a little skewed in favor of pranking as this site’s reader’s likely have a better sense of humor and are more “fun loving” than your average office worker. Apparently 20% of you need to get off your butts and prank a work buddy. With a pretty large list of office pranks to be had, what exactly are you waiting for?
