Do you think you know the office inside out? Have you been around enough corporate cubicles, hallways and meeting rooms to answer some of this challenging trivia I am about to throw at you? Well, if you can score north of 70% then hats off to you. You are a corporate guru. If not, you need more coffee, PowerPoint and water cooler gossip. Ready? Here we go: Corporate Trivia: Part I
- What's the average number of times an office worker checks their email per day?
- In a typical office, what percentage of employees admit to taking a "desk nap"?
- What's the most common office supply that mysteriously disappears?
- How many hours per week does the average office worker spend in meetings?
- What percentage of office workers have used a fake excuse to miss work?
- What's the average number of times an office worker visits the bathroom daily?
- In what year was the first office cubicle introduced?
- What percentage of office workers eat lunch at their desks?
- How many calories does an hour of typing burn?
- What's the average number of gossip sessions an office worker engages in per week?
- A whopping 96 times! That's once every 5 minutes in an 8-hour workday. No wonder your inbox feels like a clingy ex!
- 30%! The other 70% are probably just better at hiding it. Pro tip: Keep a mirror on your desk to check for keyboard imprints on your forehead.
- Pens! They're the office equivalent of socks in a laundry machine. Some say there's a secret pen dimension accessible only through the bottom drawer of filing cabinets.
- 4 hours! That's half a workday spent trying to look interested while secretly playing Bingo with overused corporate jargon.
- 38%! The other 62% are probably too busy coming up with their next fake excuse to answer the survey.
- 3-4 times. But let's be honest, half of those trips are just to escape that one coworker who won't stop talking about their cat's Instagram account.
- 1967! It was supposed to promote productivity, not slowly crush our souls. Thanks a lot, Robert Propst!
- 62%! The other 38% are either out networking or stuck in yet another meeting that could've been an email.
- About 41 calories. So if you type non-stop for 85 hours, you might burn off that slice of birthday cake from the office party!
- 3 sessions per week. But if you're the office gossip, you probably think this number is rookies.
Remember, Cubicle Comrades, knowledge is power... and a great way to impress your coworkers at the next virtual happy hour!
