Sometimes, generally around the holidays, my office likes to spice things up. Our Quality of Work Life Committee likes to organize little events to break up the work day. At Halloween, that translates into the Pumpkin Carving/Decorating Contest.
Our office is made up of seven different projects (departments) and (usually) each project submits a pumpkin. The judges are from other offices in the building, and are not announced until just minutes prior to the showing. That way there can be no bribes, you see. (Did I mention we’re competitive?)
Now, these pumpkins, they can get quite elaborate. Allow me to demonstrate from last year’s entries:

The office was under construction last year

I didn't even know what Twitter was at this point

Eh...something about the election

Dia de los Muertos - points for the most elaborate
And out of all of these creative works, who won? Well, I’m glad you asked. We did. With this beauty:

Not only a broken piggy bank...

...but, yes, that's also lipstick on our pig
Our inspiration this year: Balloon Boy. What else?
We’re still working on it (seriously, I feel like I’ve been getting paid to spray paint), but I’ll be sure to post a photo when we’re done. I know you can’t wait.
Any last minute details you think we should add?
