Teambuilding In Korea

Now, there isn't much to do around here. Especially for a large group of people. So, we decided to go bowling as a team building a few weeks ago. Too bad the finger holes in the USA are often too small for me - these were tiny -- and they were only about one inch deep, so you couldn't even get most of your finger in there. I don't know what that was about. At least it gave us an excuse for our poor scores. That, and the fact that after they repaird the ball return, there was oil everyone, which had the ball sliding all over the lane. Q-U-A-L-I-T-Y.

Now, the bowling alley was in the next town, which meant an estimated 15 minute drive. We wouldn't want anyone to have a beer and drive home, so we hired the bus for the 15 minute drive. Luckily, the bus comes complete with cordless microphone for our entertainment!

Tom belted out a nice tune or two....which was then completed ruined by another co-worker who sang to the tune of "walking in a winter wonderland", while singing the words "why is korea so darn hot"...or something like that. He was HILARIOUS.

When you go bowling in South Korea - there is no food or beer at the alley. Therefore, you carry your own cooler to the bowling lanes! Sometimes, I'm glad I'm not a guy.

Of course, you can't bowl all night -- or maybe the Teambuilding coordinator (yours truly) should have booked the lanes for a longer time, because we had a lot of fun. Below is the after-party crew. And, yes, I work with all those skinny, cute girls every day. Talk about depressing!! These Korean chicks have some serious style - they wouldn't be caught dead wearing the boring stuff that I wear. They are always very fashionable. Of course, when you wear a size 1, anything looks hot on you. In fact, just because I work with them, I was bound and determined to start trying to look just a little bit cuter, more fashionable, more accesorized everyday...and then I woke up to the alarm for another dreaded day at work and decided to forget about it. :)

Next up for teambuilding is going to be a Beach BBQ next Saturday. We will even have all the required activities... Horeshoes, 3-legged races and Gumoshin throwing. I probably have the word wrong, but apparently you hang your shoe off of your foot. Someone counts to 3, and you throw your shoe (directly off of your foot) as far as you can!! I'm sure only the most talented person will win this one. I will have to think up an appropriate prize for the winner. Any cheesy suggestions for this, or other competitions are appreciated.
