Top 5 Workplace Blogs of the Week for March 3-9th

We’re blogging LIVE from South by Southwest in Austin, Texas this week! Lots of things are happening and it’s only Friday! While these blogs don’t necessarily have anything to do with #SXSW this is the #SXSW edition because I am here. Argueably, all other editions could be Blake’s Couch addition because that is usually where I write everything else.

  • Unhappy Employees Are Not Disengaged Employees: I used to work for a retail company and sometimes I could come in and not be the most happy of employees….be it because I wasn’t happy or because I didn’t want to be at work. I kept getting talked to that my mood affects the entire office. I was a peon, that should not be the case. I love this article for pointing out that just because you’re unhappy, doesn’t mean you aren’t a good employee.  Click here.
  • 3 Unorthodox Ways to Motivate Your Workplace: Playing Games, Sleeping, and Muzak can increase motivation in your workplace…say what?  Click here.
