She let us to follow her around while she interviewed willing and eager citizens, sharing some of their answers with us. Wonder Woman asked each participant, “Do you want speak your Truth about Play and Work?” Each person in turn, purposefully took the Golden Lasso in hand, knowing full well that they could now only tell the Truth.

Wonder Woman: How do you play at work? What do you do for fun?

Sample Participant Responses:

• Practical Jokes! I love using big black rubber spiders under things

• Design shoes with my kids
• Laughing at people
• Tell jokes
• Go to farmer’s market
• Eat, play with and design chocolate
• Wander around the forest watching primates
• Dance
• Play with the kids I work with
• Play with how to make a space more livable

Wonder Woman: What are ways you’ve thought about playing at work and haven’t done yet?

Sample Participant Responses:

• blowing bubbles
• playing harmonica
• swear at my boss
  
• stationery bike

• play catch with baseball gloves

Although Wonder Woman is still on her search for the Truth about Play and Work, a pattern is already emerging. It appears that most of the people who are employed by someone else, use diversions to play at work, while people who are self-employed have fun actually doing the work.

Wonder Woman also noted that all of the handful of employees interviewed who played by doing their work, had been doing their jobs 1-2 years and appeared passionate and grateful for the opportunity.

We wish her well on the quest and hope to catch up with her again soon! Thanks Wonder Woman!
