503348 2006-11-30 21:01:00 How many people out there work enuf to have to go to the dreaded end of year work do????


This is my first year employed by another place instead of self employed and i get to go free! wow.... (dots just for you guys:p)

How many do or dont attend? is it user pays or free?

we get a free dinner if we supply a silly mystery prize for the the lucky dip. and a local resturant to boot...... no partners tho.

does your work do anything special? like maybe take the day off? for xmas? :p

i worked xmas days for many a year so its bliss to not work that day now.

503349 2006-11-30 21:10:00 Christmas is cancelled this year, sorry.

I have a meeting overseas just before Xmas, so have decided that Christmas has to go, no time to even consider it.

Please beetle, do not get drunk again this year and dance on the tables. Or, if you must, please reconsider wearing that miniskirt...

503352 2006-12-01 02:06:00 No-one has to go to the work do.
Its optional.
Some I've been to, others I didn't.
They don't fire you if you don't you know.

My son has decided this year his work has gone mad so he won't attend - some twit decided they would go off and have a nice time - line dancing!:p

503355 2006-12-01 05:44:00 I have a boss and have worked for him for ten years.
No Xmas party where I am so I won't need to go.

High heels? I don't remember that part.
You were barefoot to my recall.
But my memory is about the same as that of Don Brash.
Perhaps it was Foxy I was thinking about.
Or Winston in a kilt.
