How to Create a Mini Golf Course Using Office Supplies

Category: Workplace Shenanigans

Let’s face it — your productivity died 45 minutes ago. So why not honor its memory by transforming your sad, beige cubicle into a 9-hole masterpiece of mediocrity?

What You’ll Need:

  • A stapler (your putter)
  • Paper clips (ball markers)
  • A stress ball or balled-up sticky note (your golf ball)
  • File folders, manila envelopes, and existential dread (your course materials)
  • Tape, scissors, sticky notes, binder clips (for traps and hazards)

How to Set It Up:

Hole 1: The Inbox Slope – Start off strong by building a ramp over your incoming mail tray. Add a paperclip hazard to spice it up.

Hole 2: The Passive-Aggressive HR Obstacle – Your ball must wind around a printout that says “Work smarter, not harder.”

Hole 3: Coffee Mug Canyon – Miss the shot? The ball lands in Greg’s crusty old cup from last quarter. Game over.

Hole 4: The Conference Room Cliff – Hit your ball across a pile of agendas that no one reads.

Keep going until you’ve completely dismantled your workday and self-respect. Optional: Print mini flags or name each hole something punny like “Par-anoia” or “TPS Trap.”

Office Etiquette (Optional)

  • Pretend it’s a team-building exercise.
  • Let your boss win. Or don’t.
  • Play while on mute during Zoom calls — that’s the real pro move.

Final Thoughts

You didn’t get a raise this year — you deserve this. Besides, it’s not about winning. It’s about strategic disengagement.
