Looney Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 if you were an animal - what would you be? what day of the week are you most like - and why? what colour do you feel today? aaaaaarghhhhhhhhhhh!!!! Phil Sorry, can't resist....my answers to the above would be.... if you were an animal - what would you be? I am an animal (take that as you wish!) what day of the week are you most like - and why? I am most like today, a slight improvement on yesterday and not quite as good as tomorrow what colour do you feel today - sort of pinkish, with freckles! Trainers don't like me much.....

AnnieP Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 I usually don't partake in these kinds of things either, but, well, sometimes these exercises can be great! We did one at work once where we were all given a tiny little notebook. We had to write our names on the front, and then pass it on. Each one we got, we had to write something in the book about the person who it belonged to. I've still got mine, it is hilarious what people had written about me, adn made me feel very special. It is now one of my most treasured posessions, and I only have to look at it to cheer myself up if I'm feeling a bit miserable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 *groan* we had to do something like this recently at a team building day. I work with a great team, but only one day a week, so they don't really know me very well at all. We had to come up with 2 words to describe each person in the team. For me, they came up with 'friendly' and 'knowledgeable'. I know they meant well, but how boring and nondescript is that? My 5 would be: Loyal Optimistic Daring Patient Cheerful Well, that's one week of the month anyway! What shall I be next week? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hillfamily Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 thin sane fit organised ..................................... ..................... and most importantly...................... ...................delusional i can't stand it when managers decide they need to evaluate or have a team bonding session. If you're doing the job well why waste time and if your not not then its up to management to show you errors and a way to correct them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kannie Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 I like this thread - good to think about these things sometimes (in contrast to some of you, I do like this sort of thing!) At the moment I'd choose: calm thoughtful caring reserved hard working But I think I'd like to be a bit more: creative relaxed sociable fit (in my wildest dreams!) giving Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popcorn Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 fit (in my wildest dreams!) Arrr...yes...a good choice of word there Kannie. I'm s"Ooops, word censored!"ping one of mine and pinching this one. Especially as I went to the gym today. It's all so fresh in my mind (and my leg muscles) that I'm so unfit.

One Man Banned Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 I wouldnt know where to start on something like this! Ok so maybe Funny Happy Loud Loving Caring would be an ok place to start but I have other not so nice qualities too! As for the fitness, well that is something I'd also love to have - but I even pulled my shoulder playing on the Wii earlier A xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mel (& Paul) Posted January 22, 2007 Author Share Posted January 22, 2007 Thanks guys - I will let you know how I get on. I also have to think of five training needs. I thought Home brewing Animal husbandry How to upload photographs on a forum The art of worm compestry and How to remain calm in the face of pointless exercises from the boss (this from someone who was marked down in the "team player" part of her appraisal from excellent to good "because I dont make the tea" - I kid you not - it obviously doesnt matter that I deputise for my boss when she is on holiday, do more than my budgeted claims, more than my budgeted fees, do, on average 9.5 chargeable hours per working day, when the average is 7 - but hey, making the tea is such an important thing.......
