When talking about office life, perhaps the only couple of items that come into your mind are desktop/laptop, sticky-notes, pen and the forever handicapped printer… How to enjoy working? I’ve seen advertisers encouraged white collars to yogurt-dance, to steal Lay’s, to play basketball for distraction. Or, we can simply work and just enjoy it.
The office is almost fully enveloped by sticky notes, each standing for a task, which is usually the case. With every rhythmic click on the keyboard, tasks are fulfilled piece by piece; however the scratching doesn’t slow down a bit. Your workload might be heavy, but every accomplishment reveals the joy beneath the post-it, and with the help of ThinkPad, the 38,756 tasks – so the title says- is just a piece of cake.
More Work, More Joy.
So, finally Lenovo comes up with the idea of using sticky notes. There have been lots of foreign made virals featuring the small scrip, all of creativity or visual incentive. Although our domestic first hit is no more than piecing out one scene to another, the idea is refreshing enough to draw 659,256 views during one week.
Let’s just wish to be cheered up by a laptop was true, for even it wasn’t, I still enjoy every single minute of mine (got to make sure Rand sees this).
