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?

no office party here
i mean, why would they bother when they pay overtime at basic rate (sometimes they don't even do that)
but I did go to a cracking party once. Frankie and Benny's, drinks all round, back to the pub for a lock in, followed by "kareoke", where me and the boys played guitars on massive novelty spoon things, followed by spitting at ducks in the village pond. And the restaurant undercharged my boss by £90, so we got some champers when we worked christmas day. marvellous.
