Birthday Decorations that Bring Joy to the Workplace
This was sent to us by one of our subscribers.
At work there is a head secretary, who is very creative and decorates the other employees’ cubicles on their birthdays.
Her decorations are very elaborate. They follow a theme that applies to the employees’ tastes or hobbies.
They include:
- A big homemade birthday card
- Overhead streamers
- Balloons
- Pictures
- Glitter
- Knickknacks
Anyone passing by notices whose birthday it is and admires the decorations. It is a real morale booster.
Birthdays are special, and decorations create enthusiasm and a happy atmosphere at work.

Joke of the Week
At the newspaper where I work, we often get calls from people asking us to photograph their fantastic gardens. One day, after an especially long winter, a man called to tell us about his fabulous amaryllis plant.
I took my scribbled notes to the photo editor for his consideration, and a few minutes later I heard him on the phone, cheerfully saying, “So, I understand you’ve been growing an armadillo.”
