Working in an office environment can be quite taxing if you don't take regular breaks. It is recommended that you take a 5 to 10 minute break every hour to help you recharge in order to keep you focused on the job in hand.
Over indulging yourself in your work can make the task seem unclear and clouded if you don't take the time to simply do something else for a brief period.
Host the game with the online bingo caller Our virtual bingo caller allows you to draw random numbers as in professional bingo halls. Our bingo caller is linked to the cards, so it tells you in real time the winners of the game with printed cards and virtual cards. Make manual or automatic random draws of numbers with our bingo caller.
That's why we have created ‘Office Bingo'. The rules are simple. Spot something happening within your office that represents what's shown on your bingo card? Mark it off!
- This bingo card has a free space and 24 words: window in office, cork or white board in office, cubicle somewhere in office, plexiglass stand, LCCC emergency procedures, thumbtacks, LCCC item that shows logo, calculator, family photograph, purse or wallet, wall clock, paper clips, pencil and ink pen, magnet, eraser, liquid paper white out or tape white out, 5 books, photo of yourself, scissors.
- Rules If you read or hear something (in your work emails, on the websites, blogs, newsletters, TV, radio, etc.) that's on a bingo card, mark it off by clicking on the relevant square. As soon as you get a line of five – BINGO! A piece of advice:. You can bookmark this page and continue playing the next day.
The first one to get a full house wins!
CLICK HERE TO PLAY OFFICE BINGO
Simply randomise your card, choose your favourite coloured bingo dabber and you're ready to go. If you want a more authentic bingo experience, print off your bingo card (using the provided button) and play from there.
For the best experience, share this with your colleagues in the office and see who will be victorious in Office Bingo.
Keep you and your co-workers feeling fresh by playing Office Bingo throughout the day. Who said working in an office couldn't be fun?
Finally, a new way to pass the time at work: Office BINGO. Play alone or play with friends. Regular BINGO rules apply!
Most of the squares are self-explanatory, however, since we don't want any of your co-workers to cheat you out of victory, let's clarify what must be seen/heard to claim the box.
ROW B
Awkward Silence: Offices are loaded with it. Whether it's the lunchroom, the conference room or simply at your desk, you'll know it when you hear it!
Community Food: Common examples are the obligatory bagels and birthday cake. Any edible item dumped on a public table for the vultures to consume qualifies.
Fridge Cleaning: It doesn't happen often, but some do-gooder always posts a sign on the refrigerator door warning that all unmarked items will be tossed by 4pm on a given date. (Subsequently, this leads to people angrily marking their salad dressing bottles with bold initials.)
Popcorn Nuker: The smell wafts through the air, causing a distracting paralysis. Often, you can set your watch to this activity.
Stinky Lunch: Natto, curry, onions and fish. Yummy for them, hellacious for you.
ROW I
Unsolicited Bathroom Talk: You pull up to a urinal or escape into a stall to do your business, yet someone has to break the unwritten code of silence and shout over the divider.
Coffee Spotting: An easy square to acquire. Just locate someone gulping down java.
Asked for Office Supply: Get your own stapler, damn it! People are always borrowing supplies rather than walking over to the cabinet and getting their own.
Office Whistler: Beware, the psychological profile of this person is probably frightening. Awkward, annoying and out of tune, this person thinks an empty hallway is an amphitheater for their mouth.
Temperature Issues: 'Who touched the thermostat?' Cold. Hot. Cold Hot. Can't we all just get along? To get this square you must overhear someone complaining about the interior temperature.
ROW N
Random Body Pain: You're sitting at your desk clanking on your keyboard, minding your own business. OW! Some striking pain hits your body for no good reason. You spend about 5 minutes wondering if you're gonna die, then you forget about it until the next one comes.
Awkward IT Moment: They're good with technology, but they're not so good at communicating with 'laypeople.' Whether it's the way they ask you to fill out a trouble ticket or magically appear behind you, you'll know this moment when it happens.
FREE
Smokers Return: Like wolves, these tobacco fiends run in packs. After blockading the company entrance, they return, spreading the smell of fire and mint gum throughout the office.
Ran Out of Post-It Notes: Duh!
ROW G
Day / Time Confusion: Statements to look out for – 'It's only 11am?' or 'All day I thought it was Friday!' Especially prevalent after a three-day, holiday weekend.

Random HR Memo: Whether they're changing who handles your 401K or reminding you about the dress code, HR sure is proficient at wasting our time.
Repeated Story: We all deny it, but we're all guilty of this one. Check off your box if you're hearing a story for the second time and don't have the heart to interrupt.
Mention of the Weather: The ultimate in office small talk. 'I can't get over this rain!' I'm confident you'll acquire this box quickly.
Last-Minute Assignment: Whether you're off to lunch or leaving for the day, projects have a magical way of appearing at 4:55pm on a Friday.
ROW O
Called by Boss: Nice and simple. Your boss phones you, you get this box.
Hallway Shuffle: Mix a narrow hallway with an indecisive walker, and the rest is history. You go one way. They go the same way. Next thing you know, you're doing the Hallway Shuffle!

Printer Jam: Duh!

Unidentified Person: Routine is what makes your office such a horrendous place to be. Isn't it amazing the attention a random workman or visitor from another company gets? Find a stranger and win.
Yawning Epidemic: As contagious as negativity, your job is to find at least two people yawning consecutively.
