This supposedly was a real event that took place in a consulting firm in Chicago.
The boss of a small company called a spontaneous staff meeting in the middle of a particularly stressful week. When everyone gathered the employer, who understood the benefits of having fun, told the burnt-out staff the purpose of the meeting was to have a quick contest, whose theme was "Viagra advertising slogans."
Dividing into 10 groups of three, the only rule was they had to use past/existing ad slogans that captured the essence of Viagra.
About 7 minutes later, they turned in their suggestions, and created a "Top Ten List."
After all the laughter and camaraderie, the rest of the week went very well for everyone. I'm pretty sure we can do better here at lit, both on the creativity dimension and on enjoying the rest of the week...
