In my corporate meeting today we seen a short motivational film from the concept taken from the book, Fish Tales. It's a 17 minute little fun film of guys in a fish market in Seattle who have a roaring good time on the job. Well, at least in the film.

These guys play with the dead fish, throw it, play catch, make dead fish dance etc. for their own entertainment and for the amusement of customers and those passing by. Potential future customers. They yell, they jump, play and frolic amidst dead sea creatures. Hell at the end of the video I wanted to play with dead fish.

Well the concept of the whole film of course is to have fun on your job. Try to employ these simple concepts to your workplace. So I tried to picture my employees in the fish market. In a matter of 30 seconds I could envision dead clients beat to death by flying fish, half the dead creatures in the back of a relatives van, and the ones not participating in the now riot sitting watching TV complaining they might break a nail.

I don't think the film was supposed to take me there. Maybe I'm wrong. I don't think so.

Anyway at the first coffee break I told my boss about my daydream and that I would be leaving soon. I want to work with dead fish. She agreed, even if it might stink and we could break a nail. Somethings are just worth the price.
