This morning, as I was drinking my coffee before heading off to work, I stumbled upon an article on cnn.com about Post-It wars raging in Paris. Curious, I clicked on the link to read the article and discovered a surprisingly fun battle happening in some of Paris' biggest companies in La Defense and Issy-les-Moulineaux: apparently employees are having post-it wars. They are making huge designs out of post-its on their companies windows so everyone can see, everything from cartoon characters to messages to rocket ships. The largest one is 7 stories tall using thousands of post-its! And the companies are generally in favor of this war, seeing it as a good team building exercise (not to mention the Post-It company is certainly enjoying it!). To read more about it,

So, on my way to work this morning at les Sablons, I looked up at the building of the company I teach in, and was very surprised, only an hour after reading the CNN article, to find this, staring back at me:
sorry the photo is so bad, it was on my cell phone, but click to enlarge
Yoda in Post-Its saying "may the Post-Its be with you" next to it!
Who knew the French worker bees could have so much fun! Do you know anyone participating in the Post-It war????
You see them all over downtown Lille too. I saw them a few months ago and then by random my brother sent me a link to the blog. It's pretty neat!
