'It’s not just about the work. The depth& breadth of ‘side conversations’ when you are working alongside someone can be amazing; particularly if it’s physical repetitive work. Once you’ve caught your breath there’s always space to share a yarn.'

'Working together & achieving a common goal definitely triggers emotions of satisfaction, joy & even a bit of pride.'

Very resonant. My favourite work projects are ones where I work with other people. #surprises #fun
