We're channeling the cubicles of old for this #MotivationalMonday

If you have a short week this week, hang in there.

If you don't, hang in there but longer.

Happy Friday dedicated employees of Paperclip Intl!

Got a tradition for Fridays?

Getting Pizza for lunch (with pineapple obviously)?
Specialty Coffee?
Stretching that one task as long as you can?

Let us know in the comments!

That's it, another Thursday down.

Bring on Friday, the day with the highest statistical probability (probably) to have the most bugs!

Appreciate the #WishlistWednesday space. Shardpunk 2 puts you in charge of an outpost as you gather intel, build your squad and face a rising threat.
The Empire may have fallen, but the fight goes on.

Shardpunk 2 puts you in command of a human outpost, where tactical decisions, team building, scavenging, and survival all collide. A new threat is rising in the Capitol’s ruins!

🐀 Add it to your Steam wishlist!

Remember that productivity isn’t about how early you start…

Happy Monday valued employees of Paperclip Intl!

We're here with another #MondayMotivation - office edition.

A reminder for those who dealt with the ending of #DST over the weekend

Using the #TimeChange to excuse why you're late will only work for the first two days of this week. You will have to get creative after that.
