Normally, my library system has a yearly All Staff Day, where the whole staff gets together for a day of...well, a lot of nonsense, really, but there's the awards ceremony and some "professional development" stuff that never turns out to be actually relevant, and there's speakers and things. It's not great, but we get lunch, at least.

This year, obviously, that is a Bad Idea. So instead, the plan is to do the first four hours with the whole staff via Zoom and then break up into branches for the other four hours in the afternoon. Those four hours can be used either for "professional development" or "team building". My manager was jokingly despairing about planning stuff to fill those four hours.

I may have suggested that I could eat up at least two of them by giving the rest of the staff a crash course in rpgs and then running a Honey Heist game. Tabletop roleplaying games teach collaborative problem solving, right? That's a legit teambuilding exercise, probably. (Plus, much easier than trying to run a D&D game for newbies and lets them know that there's more to ttrpgs than D&D.)

It almost certainly won't actually happen, but my manager liked the idea a lot, so who knows?
