Loving What You Do

Sep 10th, 2010 by Krista Ogburn Francis in Workplace

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

Did you know I was born in Nigeria and lived there until I was 18? Unfortunately, I frequently hear a lot of negative hype about my birth country–mostly concerning alleged schemes of corruption–so I am always happy to come across any happy news. Here we go!

Is this a “real” or staged video? I don’t know. Would I be able to follow this traffic cop’s complex hand signals? Doubtful. But I love this video all the same; and although I’m not suggesting we all do a Lord of the Dance rendition around the office or warehouse or, I do wish we could all find ways to bring a little of this kind of flair to work.

And then work might feel like a happier, more fulfilling, joyful enterprise, n’est-ce pas?

How could you incorporate a little bit of personal style into your job? I’d be interested to hear.
