Title: Ponies sneaking into the workplace..
Post by: squishy turdl on July 04, 2014, 03:43:50 AM

Do any of you have a pony at work? Or do you like to keep your 'pony thing' just for home, (so you don't get those weird judgey looks).

Show me your work ponies!! !!!!!!



Here are the few I have in my shop..

That's so cool! The closest thing I have to ponies coming into work (well school for me :lol:), is on my computer my lock screen it's a picture of Fluttershy, so that's something right?  :lol:

I keep a little blindbag in my school purse for good luck, but other than that I'm pretty shy with my ponies.

Your workspace is adorable, i love it! May i ask what you do? I see what looks like a lot of paints and sketches?

I have a Funko Dr. Hooves and the Yahtzee Tardis that I thought about putting on my desk but it is so crowded.

My ponies didn't sneak in, they came in with a thundering gallop and made themselves at home nicely.  I'll have to wait until next week to post pics :)

Mine are all at home, with a lot of people (teenagers and adults) entering the staff room I don't want anypony be lost but if I had a desk or a room only for a few I would definitely have at least one or two of my doubles.
It's nice to have personal things at work that make you feel more confortable.  :ohyeah:

Good for them! I wish I had more confidence with my ponies and such, but I'm too nervous I think. :c

Can't wait to see more pictures!

I had a G3 baby Romperooni on my desk some years back as I had two, but after I moved jobs I kept her at home.  No pictures, sadly!

I have some ponies at work.  My closest co-workers know I collect.  When we were having trouble finding one of our keys on a regular bases, I made a key chain out of a neon colored BB.  Now everyone knows that key is the one with the unicorn on it!

This is cute what some of you do with your ponies :) I don't have any with me at work. I am a mental health aid and I don't have my own place or deck. And my patients would try to eat them......LOL

I can understand, when I first got into collecting sometimes my husband would bring up 'the ponies' in front of other people for a laugh, although I've come to embrace my 'pony thing' now!! :)

I'm a tattoo artist! :)

I'd like to take a pony, but the amount of dirt around my workplace is unbelievable. I stopped trying to keep it clean, so any ponies would just get filthy.

Sorry to be a little offtopic, but wow a tattoo artist! That's wonderful, your sketches are so pretty.

My mum brings up the ponies as a joke as well so I understand, haha c:

No beacuse I work at a store stocking shelves and I only go into the brake room to eate then leave there isen't any place for them. Nor do I trust people.

I think if I had a desk job I would have a common duplacate pony.

It's hard for me to trust people beacuse when some of them see ponies they are like O.O $1,000 !!!   Ka Ching!

I'ma steel it and sell it on ebay. Oh I'ma be so rich  :newpony:

when really they have just ripped off my common sundance  :happy: common..







but i'd be just  :stressed: :wail: :enraged: :shakefist: :sad: :sneaky:
:facepalm: :pullhair:

all these emotions if someone stole a pony from me.

so it would depend on what type of job i had weather or not i brought desk ponies to it

Oh oh!  I did this once!  I used to work the overnight shift at a gas station, and one night I decided to bring in my ponies and let them play!  Pics under the cut!

I've got McD Ponies at my desk at work, they're easily replaceable if something should happen to them. I've also got a Pinkie Pie plush that my last workplace got for me when I left there. Yeah, all my coworkers know I collect.

I have a Funko Pop Twilight and wave 1 Twilight on a bookshelf and then an ever changing array of Blind Bags around my desk.  I have some of the G4 magnets scattered around the lab on the metal shelves too.

I have ponies at work :) My work friends are totally cool with the pony thing and one of them even bought me a couple of G3s and a fakie (who she likes to call a 'phoney') from a flea market and I have those on my desk as well as two G4s that I got as gifts that were duplicates and a few blind bags :)

I just started a new job this week. Its a more open plan office than I was working in previously. I decided to give them a week of my company before inflicting ponies on them as well :P But as of Monday there will be some blind bags hanging out on my desk :)

No ponies at work for me, but.. I'm thinking of changing jobs after I get my training here certified, so maybe I'll have a desk for the next job!

I have G4 and G3 McPonies, a few extra blind bag ponies and two G3 plastic pony figurines (maybe they were cake decorations?) displayed around my cube at work, plus a G4 calendar. One Valentine's Day I even gave everyone G4 valentines! I also have a G4 pony birthday banner I display on co-worker's cubicles on their birthday (with their permission of course).  :biggrin:

Unfortunately I don't currently have a desk at work  :(

However, I do have a truck!  :cool:


Mini RD came with me today, and being the adventurous have-go-pony she is, she wanted to drive. . .

 . . . sadly her legs are about 3 foot too short to reach the pedals, so she settled for a view from the dashboard instead. . .

Here you can just see her through the window directly above the Renault badge:-

I have made 2 customs with our logo that sit on my shelves at work (a few people have had me make them ponies for work too!)  I currently keep a haircut Dancing Butterflies on my desk because looking at her cheers me up and reminds me that the work dramaz can't touch my inner cuddly child.  :)

I keep 2 fashems in my locker. Whenever I get mad at my boss I squish  them and bounce them off the floor. I used to keep a 3.5 pinkie  pie in my backpack but her heir just got too nasty.  I also have g3 stickers on my locker and some of my friends lockers and on a couple of the walkie talkies.

I mean, 2 or 3... I've had to restrain myself when kids come in to look at everything and they start picking up and playing with the ones on the window... and they all fall over. One girl yesterday was trying to get the Crystal Motion AJ to work, making the whole cork board wobble and the Funkos almost fall on her head. And then she said that she "only wanted one of them" and went to grab AJ's Barn and then they had to leave my office.  ^.^

I work in a dirty warehouse, so that really isn't possible. I had a baity Fluttershy that I brought there for a while, but one day I accidentally left it there and I think one of my coworkers (he got fired later for being a horrible, sexist, irresponsible jerk) threw it away.

Sometimes I wear MLP related accessories to work, though. :)

Holy cow! Girlyponce that's awesome that your workplace let's you decorate your office like that! What do you do for a living, if you don't mind my asking?

I used to have Bubbles, Windy, and Moonstone on my desk but I took them home to be with the rest of my herd. I miss the color they brought to my desk but with the construction going on it's been better to have them at home.

If I brought any ponies to work, the dogs would eat them.

I just wear shirts, pendants, and have pony pins on a beanie that I wear a lot and my work bag. Easy ways to bring pony to work without risking the daycare dogs finding one to snack on.

I work as an office-based aircraft engineer and have four ponies sharing my desk with a clockwork pelican and model DHL Boeing 757 (one of the customers I look after).  :)

My colleagues all know about my MLP love (err...obsession  :blush:) so were not surprised when they started appearing. :biggrin:

We have a dress-down day on Fridays so I get to wear my MLP t-shirts too  :lol:
