Nothing cuts through the red tape of bureaucracy like the razor-sharp teeth of a great white shark!
Sharks are great motivators.
Looking for that extra incentive your employees need to stay focused? Well, look no further.
Sharks can improve employees’ health.
Does your company have a wellness program? Well, being chased by sharks is great cardio! Imagine how quickly your employees will be whipped into shape while swimming away from sharks in a freshly chummed tank.
Onsite fitness centers are all the rage these days, and think of the money your company will save in health insurance costs as employees burn those pounds swimming for their lives*! (*Life insurance claims may increase.)
Sharks will speed up your approval processes.
Hate lapsed deadlines? Can’t get your projects approved on time? Sharks can help!
Sharks can help with team-building.
Stop wasting money on employee workshops that promote teamwork, because nothing brings people together like surviving a life-threatening experience. The next time someone falls head first into the shark tank, encourage your employees to fish him out.
Sharks will boost morale.
Because every day that you don’t die between the jaws of a powerful predator is a great day.
Sharks in the workplace are sure to be the next big trend. Because when you’re working with sharks, you’re not just working like it’s your job. You’re working like your life depends on it.
Editor’s note: This is probably not the best day to start reading my blog, so if you’re new, I’m sorry. The wheels kind of came off the bus on this one.
I don’t even know where to start.
People are ridiculous. It’s probably an awesome ridiculous, though, because someone found my site by searching this:
Which is my new favorite sentence, because I’m pretty sure every situation gets better when you say “fuck your shit I’m in a bear suit.”
Like, the day you buy a bear suit.
Your first day of work.
Your last day of work, which will most likely be about 5 minutes after you show up dressed as a bear, because bear suits maybe aren’t business casual.
The day your girlfriend decides to break up with you, because you lost your job and you won’t take off your bear suit.
Even the day you realize most of your life has unraveled because you’re in a bear suit will definitely get a little better when you say:
You could be thinking: Kendall. This literally makes no sense.
To which I would respond: Skeptical reader, you might be right. I accidentally stabbed cut my finger earlier today while I was cooking, and I’ve been a little delirious with a combination of blood loss and the trauma of almost having to face the world without all of my digits. (Maybe the cut wasn’t that bad, but I seriously hope I never get stabbed to death because that shit was painful.)
But the surprising delight of “fuck your shit I’m in a bear suit” won’t seem so absurd when you’re unarmed and dressed as a bear during the zombie apocalypse.
Because being unarmed in a zombie apocalypse? That’s what would be really absurd. And anyway, who doesn’t look for a little comic relief just before their brains are devoured by zombies?
My husband and I are in the middle of a semi-serious, baby fever Mexican standoff. We both want a baby, but I am deeply afraid of pregnancy.
Now that we’re on the subject, I’m not totally comfortable with the aftermath of having a baby, either. Suddenly, there will be a stranger roaming around my house. What if it hates me? What will we do together all day? Do babies like Netflix?
They say you’re supposed to picture the audience naked when you’re afraid to give a speech, but babies are already naked. So, what do you do when you’re afraid of them?
Here’s my favorite coping mechanism: Completely Unacceptable Household Uses for Babies
