Well Played.

“Work hard” is a given here. The QUESTION is: Do we play as hard? Let’s step outside the office for one month, and take a swing at just how well some of our colleagues spend their time beyond normal business hours. Play on, Datamax!

Dear Datamax Family,

Thomas Edison once said, “Time is really the only capital that any human being has, and the only thing we can’t afford to lose.” At Datamax, we’re reminded by the Little Blue Book to “honor our commitments,” “do the job right the first time,” and  “focus on the things that are productive.” Time spent carrying out these philosophies is time well spent. But our time outside of work is valuable, too.

Simon says ...

“The question this month is, how do we spend our time outside of the office? Do we play as well as we work? Why even pose that question? Because inspired, rejuvenated employees do their best work and live the most fulfilled lives.” - Barry Simon
