Mentioning it casually gives those people a chance to chime in (should they so desire). | |

It seems like the rest of the team welcomes the chance to take a break and blow off some steam, and if it doesn't affect productivity, it's kind of a win-win. If one person is determined to disrupt what is essentially a team-bonding experience -- and a free one at that -- as the manager I'd question if they were a good fit. | |
