Work participation👎👍

Secret Santa wasn’t mandatory by any means this year, but I still participated because I like to make my coworkers feel special! I’m wondering, do you participate in something at work if it isn’t mandatory? Or do you not participate unless there’s a consequence? #AskLemon8 #lemon8contest#WorkLife #lemon8career #lemon8creator
