Summer was approaching. Temperatures were rising… and so was the number of employees at Decskill. It was time to celebrate all these people.
We created Summer Popping, a traditional Portuguese summer festival that also welcomed the company’s newly arrived international employees. It had everything a summer party deserves: “estendais,” “manjericos,” and “azulejos.” Popular music that everyone sings and dances to. Sardines, “bifanas,” sausages. “Arroz doce” and “pastéis de nata.” A “quermesse” with raffles and original, traditional prizes: “figuras de Santo Antónios,” “cães de loiça,” Ronaldo jerseys, and “loiças do Bordallo.” Plus, fun traditional games where participants could win both the game and a prize.
“Esta festa foi, PIMBA, certeira, na mouche”, “Isto é que foi diversão toda a noite” or “Podem ficar com o carro, com as jóias e casa, mas não acabem com a festa” were some of the things we heard at the end, during the Vox POP.
