International Fun at Work Day
About Fun at Work Day and International Fun at Work Day
When is Fun at Work Day? Fun a Work Day is always January 28. International Fun at Work Day is always celebrated on April 1
Fun at Work Day and International Fun at Work Day are both designed as a day to have fun for once at your workplace. Ideally, work should be fun. But normally, work is not intended to have fun. It’s intended to get work done. You’re a very lucky person if you can get work done and have fun doing it at the same time. The few lucky souls in this situation, love their job.
Unfortunately, most of us are not lucky enough to have a job that’s fun to do. If that’s you, then today is a day just for you! Think of ways to make your job more fun and exciting. Look to do some fun things at work today, even if it takes away from production just a wee bit.
Please Note: If you do fun things today that is counter-productive, or takes you away from the job, make sure you get your boss’ permission first. Better still, get him or her involved. Then, all of you can have fun, and no one will get in trouble.

History and Origin of Fun at Work Day
We have yet to discover who created either of these days or the original date of creation. Since we enjoy doing research, and we were at work, we concluded that were having fun while on the job. Certainly, stopping to document the details about the holiday would seem to be too much work.
If you have any information about the creation of either of these days, please let us know. We’d love to hear from you!
