6 Interesting Ways You Can Have Fun With Your Coworkers After Work
By PAGE Editor
It is important to be social in the workplace. That's why many people hang around after work with their coworkers for fun activities. That way, they feel more connected to each other and the company as a whole. Here are six fun ideas that you and your coworkers can do together after work.
Have A Game Night
There are plenty of different games you can play using a blaster with your colleagues. For example, you can try to hit as many targets as possible in a set amount of time, or see how fast you can knock down all the pins in a bowling game. You could even have a contest to see who can shoot the most ducks in a row. Or use a random name picker for fun!
As long as everyone has fun playing the game while having a good time, that’s all that matters. The more people are involved in the game, the better. You could even break out into smaller games within the team for more action.
Meet up at someone's house for dinner
It's often hard to find time in between your busy schedule to meet up with friends. If you don't want the hassle of trying to coordinate schedules, try meeting up at someone's house for dinner. The host will likely pick up or make food, but you can contribute by bringing drinks or dessert. If you bring a dish or dessert, make sure it's something easy to serve and eat. You don't want to spend the entire evening in the kitchen.
Pay attention to allergies when making food choices, too. If you'd like, bring a bottle of wine (corked and bagged if possible) or some flowers for the hostess. You could also help out by picking up groceries (or picking out menu items) during regular shopping trips so the party is one less thing they need to worry about.
If you're picked up, let your host know well ahead of time what time you expect to arrive. Don't be late, if you really can't make it, call well ahead of time.
Go Out For A Walk
Not only will you get some exercise, but you can also get to know your coworkers better. You can chat and have some laughs while you enjoy the fresh air. Plus, it’s a great way to break up the workday and relax for a bit.
Walks are also a great opportunity to take in the sights and sounds of your local area. Whether you live in the city or the country, there’s always something interesting to see and experience. So, take the time to enjoy your surroundings you may be surprised by what you discover. And, if you’re lucky, you might even see some wildlife.
Watch A Movie with your coworkers
Another way to have some fun is by watching a movie together. This can be a great way to get to know them better and to have some fun. Plus, it’s a great way to take a break from work.
There are many different movies that you can watch with them. If you are looking for something light-hearted and funny, consider watching a comedy. If you want something more suspenseful or action-packed, consider watching a thriller or an action movie.
Whatever movie you choose, make sure that everyone is on board with watching it. This way, there won’t be any disagreements about what movie to watch. You can also choose to watch a movie that everyone is familiar with. This way, you can all discuss the movie while you watch it. Whatever you choose, make sure that you have fun watching the movie with your colleagues.
Go Out For Drinks
Go out for drinks. This is a classic option, and it's always enjoyable to catch up with your coworkers over a few beers or cocktails. Just be careful not to drink too much and embarrass yourself in front of everyone. It's a good idea to meet at a bar, rather than at someone's house. A bar has drinks and food available and is open early enough for you to make it there before the last call.
If you aren't the drinking type, or even if you are, consider going out for coffee after work. The atmosphere is a little less "party-like" and it may be a good opportunity to get to know something about your coworkers better. If you want an even more casual option, consider going to a local cafe instead of meeting in a coffee shop. If you want to make things easy on yourself, meet up at a bar close by where everyone can just walk home from.
If you're looking for something a little more exciting than just drinks, consider going out for a night of karaoke or dancing. Karaoke is always a good time, and there's nothing wrong with getting your groove on at a nightclub. Just make sure that you don't stay out too late, you don't want to be exhausted at work the next day.
Visit Amusement Park
There are many types of amusement parks and each one provides various attractions. Attractions include thrill rides, water rides, and go-karts just to name a few. You can have fun with your friends at the amusement parks without being embarrassed by a small group of people that you want to spend time with more closely. When spending time together however what makes the fact even more great is seeing something new and exciting about this world.
Whether you choose to watch a movie, go for a walk, or play a game, make sure that everyone is on board and has a good time. These are just a few suggestions, so feel free to get creative and come up with your ideas. The most important thing is to relax and have some fun after a long day at work.
Playing Cards
Card games offer an entertaining and thrilling way for coworkers to unwind and bond after work. Spades is a great option where partners bid on the number of "tricks" they aim to take, fostering teamwork and strategy. Canasta, on the other hand, involves collecting sets or 'melds' of cards, encouraging players to strategize on forming and disrupting combinations, making both games engaging choices for post-work camaraderie. If you don’t have access to a physical deck of cards, both games are available at dozens of sites and apps. You can play Spades for free, or check out Canasta on iOS and Google Play for free.
