This is a question 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?

ASDA
Yes, i am a por student, therefore also an ASDA colleague. Last week, after being treated to a slap up dinner by my dad, was truly stuffed when i went into work - i usually arrive early to talk with mates. Upon entering the canteen, i noticed that all the tables had been pushed into crude lines. I also noticed that instead of using a tablecloth to cover these individual tables, they had just used xmas wrapping paper, and where one roll had run out they put a fresh one in - of a different colour.

I was then asked if I wanted anything to eat, being fat, I said yes. I was brought over my "starter", or as I prefer to call it "SmartPrice tomato soup". Yum...
Main course was awful too, the meat was just warmed up turkey ham, with add-water-for-instant-gravy, and an odd little sausage in the corner of the plate. Yum.
Dessert couldn't have been any plainer. It was just a mince pie, on a plate. No cream, no spoon, still in the foil.
Afterwards, I was really full up, but was glad to experience the "ASDA xmas treat" as described on various propaganda posters.

Me and mates had a good old chuckle though....
