Christmas Podding: Day 23 – Should You Decorate the Office? 🎄

Video

Welcome back to the We Do Grotto! Today’s festive debate: To decorate or not to decorate the office?

Patrick’s Take: Less is more. Keep it understated and professional. (Although rumour has it, Patrick’s desk is basically a snow globe, so take that with a pinch of tinsel!)

Real vs. Artificial Trees:

  • Real Trees: Nothing beats the smell, but they’re undeniably messy.
  • Artificial Trees: Easy to maintain, long-lasting, and some look just as good as the real thing.
  • It’s a tough call, but the key is finding what works best for your team’s vibe (and tidiness levels).
