Today I asked a new colleague from another department what made him join our company. He smiled and said he had his job interview here while we were having a monthly birthday celebration for colleagues. So he had his interview in the room next to the room where we were celebrating, and through the thin walls he could hear us singing the birthday song loud and off-key. Somehow he thought we sound friendly, and didn't think it such a bad idea if we sang a birthday song for him too when his turn comes round.

So our bad singing actually enticed someone to join us. Incredible.
