Mandatory fun was always my least favorite god damn part. It isn't fun if you have to force me to have fun.

My company took a different approach. It wasn't mandatory but if a group of people wanted to get together and do something once a week, They would pay for dinner for however many people showed up and they had free soft drinks and beer. We've had board games, d&d, crafting, we even had a bar night where company would pick up the first drink.

I honestly miss all that terribly, but not more than is offset by not having to commute 30 min each way every day.
