139. Are We Friends?

Corporate Strategy

Ever wondered why transitioning from Halloween to Thanksgiving feels like a comedic relay race? Join us as we unpack this festive conundrum with a sprinkle of humor and a trip down memory lane, filled with personal stories of awkward costumes and candy debates. One of us has a theater background that’s given our podcast intros a thespian flair, while the other—well, let's just say monotone is an art in itself. We share how these quirks shape our communication style and even ponder the joys of adult trick-or-treating, if only society would get on board.
Friendships at work can be both a boon and a bane, and we explore this delicate balance through our own experiences. What started as a shared passion for the Legend of Zelda outside the office blossomed into a tight-knit team that revolutionized a tedious product testing process. Our camaraderie fueled creativity and productivity, yet we also reflect on how these bonds are tested as career demands grow. Through personal anecdotes, we highlight the importance of these rare connections and their profound impact on workplace dynamics and personal well-being.
Finally, we stir the pot with our engaging segment, "Is It Me or Is It Corporate?" A listener's confession about navigating the corporate world sparks a lively debate on whether workplace woes stem from personal actions or systemic issues. Spoiler alert: the corporate world might just be the culprit. We invite you to join the conversation through our Discord community, where you can share your own stories, get involved, and maybe pick up some exclusive podcast merch along the way.
