In a normal world, the biggest decision most employees make in the month of December is which ugly Christmas sweater they’ll buy or build for the annual office party! Can be too controversial, but needs to be the right combination of funny and ugly!
Since 2020 is the year of the Covid, Simplisafe developed the perfect ugly Christmas sweater:
This really got me thinking! If we could do this for social distancing, why can’t we do this to alert us when employees are on their way to the HR Office!?
What would the perfect Ugly Christmas HR Pro sweater look like?
– It would definitely have to be on the corporate brand from a logo and color perspective.
– I’m assuming somewhere would have to be a cat or multiple cats. Maybe it’s even made out of cat hair! (Wait, is that Peta friendly?) Maybe just made from artificial cat hair.
– I like the built-in technology that might warn the HR pro when an employee is getting close, so you can prepare yourself for whatever that employee might be asking for.
– From an HR Self-Service perspective it’s probably appropriate to put on the URL or email address on the back so you don’t have to speak to employees, you can just turn around and show them on your back.
– I also like something in turtle neck so we don’t throw off any sexy vibes.
I’m totally into this idea of making HR specific ugly Christmas sweaters for 2021! Some HR Tech company get on this! If Simplisafe can do it, we can do it!
I have the Kate McKinnon sweater and love it.
Haha, this reminds me of when I visited a friend’s home in college, and they had a “Knitting with Dog Hair” book on the coffee table. I made a joke about it, and his mom from the other room says, “Oh, the author is a close family friend.” Insert foot in mouth…
