Company Christmas Party

Today was our Company Christmas Party.  Yeah I know I should be more excited about it but I’m really not.  Granted it’s the only time of the year where the office actually closes for 2.5 hours and the staff is still in the building.  The party usually starts around 10:30am and it starts off with 3 groups of employees doing 3-5 minute skits in hope of winning some Christmas loot.  After that we had a drawing for 6 door prizes and then the employees presented the owner with his and his wife’s gift.  The drawback this year – we had a problem with one of our web servers that kept our attention till about 11am so I missed the skits this year :(

After the gifts and door prizes then the feast begins.  It’s a huge potluck where everyone brings in something.  And of course there is LOTS of food since we have close to 80 employees.  Overall it was fun.  I mainly just parked it in my office eating some food and just keeping an eye out on the systems to make sure nothing else went down while the party was going on.

Oh well back to normal work now, it’s been fun.

    At least no one got drunk or disorderly…

    Sounds like you work with a fun bunch of people! Total bummer that you had to miss the skits – the one day you’re allowed to “slack off” and it figures there’s a crisis. Well, at least it sounds like you had plenty of good food to enjoy for the afternoon.
