Office Christmas Parties
My office this year is having Christmas lunch. In the office. On some desks we are going to clear the monitors off. The computers underneath will keep running as we are behind on some deadlines and need to keep rendering.
OK, so some people aren't getting anything, but how Scrooge-like are your bosses when it comes to Christmas?

The Shame
Not an office Christmas party, but I got roped into being Father Christmas for a kids Christmas party one year.
I thought I was doing really well, my "ho ho ho"s were loud and jolly, and I was interacting with the brats quite well.
And then afterwards, my friend took me to one side and said "Sorry, but the parents weren't very happy, they thought you sounded like a child molester".
"Why?"
"Well, you did keep saying 'Have you been a good little girl? Would you like to come and sit on my knee? What would you like me to give you for Christmas?'".
I don't know, some people are never satisfied....
