This year, Fat Thursday once again turned out to be one of the most enjoyable days in our calendar. In keeping with tradition, we made sure that no one left the office hungry or without a smile – in the kitchens, mountains of fresh, fluffy donuts straight from the bakery were waiting.
Happiness for the Whole Year (and in Abundance)
An old Polish tradition says that anyone who eats at least one donut on Fat Thursday will have good luck for the entire year. We decided not to take any chances and encouraged everyone to stock up – after all, it's better to have an excess of luck than a shortage.
Why Was It Worth Taking a Donut Break?
This day wasn't just about calories, but above all an opportunity to:
- set aside tasks for a moment and take a breather,
- share coffee and casual chats at the table,
- get to know each other better and strengthen team bonds,
- recharge batteries for the days full of challenges to come.
Sweet Learning and Endorphins
Because as research (and our own experience) shows, sweet snacks boost endorphin levels, reduce stress, and effectively build positive relationships within the team. And the downsides? Practically none!
