We tried to take a “quick” group photo at lunch today.
You know… one photo.
A simple click.
In. Out. Done.
HAHAHAHAHAHA.
No.
Twelve photos later, here’s what went down:
Someone blinked so aggressively it looked like they were sneezing with their eyes.
One guy smiled like he was being held hostage.
Someone kept yelling “WAIT, TAKE ANOTHER ONE” even though they were the problem in every shot.
The height arranger showed up, shuffling us around like mismatched IKEA furniture.
At least two people forgot which direction “camera” is.
And there was that one coworker doing the random half-wave, like they were greeting ghosts.
By photo #13 we finally got it right.
We look professional. Co-ordinated. Competent.
A total lie, but a pretty one.
Honestly, group photos at work should count as team-building. We survived. Bonded. Suffered. Thrived.
Anyway… great lunch. 10/10. Would struggle again. 😅📸

How are you going with the holiday list?😅😆🤭

25/11/2025

We’ve officially reached peak holiday confusion at EFMC: the Christmas music is blasting… but the decorations? NOWHERE. 🎄❓
Kerry, where are you?! We’re in week four of our campaign to convince her to decorate early, and at this point reception is giving strong “festive…but make it minimalist” vibes.
It’s beginning to look a lot like… absolutely nothing.
But it sounds like Christmas. 😂🎅✨

⛈️ A little wet season reminder: secure loose items, check the forecast and stay safe on the roads.
🎄 A little Christmas reminder: eat well, laugh lots, rest often and be kind.

How’s everyone keeping cool this week?

We’ve tried logic. We’ve tried charm. We’ve even tried Mariah Carey on repeat. 🎤🎶

Team EFMC is officially in Week 3 of Operation Convince Kerry.
If you support early Christmas decorations, comment below with a 🎄 or your best persuasive argument — we’ll present them to Kerry at the next team meeting!

Let’s make this happen, people. Doug’s counting on you. 😜

☀️ Feeling the heat already? 🥵 Don’t forget — dehydration sneaks up fast!
💧 Keep your water bottle handy
🍉 Choose juicy snacks (hello, watermelon season!)
🧢 Wear a hat and slap on that SPF
If you start feeling dizzy, tired, or get a headache, take a break and cool down — your body will thank you!
