If you're one of the many and I mean many
who doesn't necessarily enjoy your time punching the clock and
going to work every day, here's a book that might
interest you. It's called Today Was Fun? A Book about
Work Seriously. The author is consultant Brie Groth, and she
contends that most work, for most days should be fun
and how to achieve that. Her mantra quote what work

(00:22):
would be the most fun to do. It's basically a
how to series of tips for managers on bringing fun
back to the workplace to maximize the quality of the
work and not focus as much on the amount of
work getting done. Now, this philosophy doesn't sit well with
every boss, and not every job or career necessarily has
the fun option, but the author makes a good case,
and an entertaining one, that the more enjoyable the job is,

(00:44):
the more creative and productive the workers will be. There's
plenty of advice for employees too, to stop putting their
work over everything else in life. Today Was Fun? A
