robocop Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 Tiz the season to be jolly... or not - what is happening at your place of work - pay cuts in the New Year or a nice Christmas bonus? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Tessla Posted December 14, 2011 Report Share Posted December 14, 2011 Tiz the season to be jolly... or not - what is happening at your place of work - pay cuts in the New Year or a nice Christmas bonus? I'm just hoping Mr Scrooge puts another (small) piece of coal on the fire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dizzy Posted December 14, 2011 Report Share Posted December 14, 2011 No pay cuts and no bonuses so a happy balance I suppose however.... My other half's place of work paid for all employees/contractors to all to go for a meal and had a free bar for a few hours too. My xmas doo depends on what my other half lets us do (or finds out I have done ). My other 'other' place of work never think to invite me on theirs cos I'm a girlie although they rarely pay me for all my hours of work anyway. I wonder if they are reading this HINT HINT !!! I count our blessings though as we are a lot better off than some people and I feel very sorry for people who are out of work, facing posible redundancy or have huge bills and debts especially at this time of year. Saying that I bet they have all done their xmas pressy shopping and have everything planned and I haven't even started mine yet. Oooh am I leaving it a bit late as usual ?

Bazj Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 Having worked on the "big sites" as a contracting electrician, all my Christmas shopping used to be done on Christmas Eve as that was usually the day you finished at 12:00, went round town for a few hours and then went to Woolworths at about 4pm for the pressies.... I still too love the last minute Christmas shopping, although these days I do a bit before if I can! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
