Work Xmas goodies. Shitty or Amazeballs.

DL?

Self employment has it's perks

Distribution List, sorry

I've been invited to team call on Christmas Eve, 1300-1400.
I reckon it will be a "you can all piss off 3 hours early" call, hopefully at 1300, rather than an hour of twaddle first (especially as that is the hour I tend to shove food in)

I anticipate my xmas goodies will be the 3 hours off for free (when the rest of the company shut down on the 18th)

$300, a box of chocolate and told to go home early on a (really great) bike they sold me for 1/3rd retail.

Nice Christmas card too.

:)

A kids hoody bought on my behalf through Choose Love https://choose.love/

Can't argue with that really.

$50 for charity (from my employer) and two 1kg blocks of mild cheddar (from a client).
Mid summer isn't really the time for fondue, but I'll give it a go.

Bloody hell, you've only been in that hemisphere for a week or so!

I was also shocked.

608g of Toblerone btw..

My OH got this, kinda 'here you are, do it yourself'.

Apparently, the company has done very well this year...

Amazingly, this is supposed to be a speaker. Glad work bought 600 of these and got them all personalised.

How's the bass?

WhatHifi would not rate it well.

Maybe you can plug in an external DAC and sub woofer.

Separate power supply if you feel spenny?

Something to hide in the suspended ceiling in your bosses office, then send subliminal messages to him
"Seager should get a pay rise"
"Buy coffee for everyone"
"learn to juggle chainsaws on company time"

That sort of thing.

lol

Hmmn, i got the same thing.

Not a big fan of sustainable/ethical products in tiny plastic packets delivered by van to hundreds of homes but it was a nice enough attempt to please everyone.

Boss clearly thinks I'm still a teenager.

🤣

So. Many. Dildos. Questions.

POTY

Hugo Boss, surely.

Also, are those scented candles you have nice? I'm looking at similar options for my mum.

my insider contacts to the Manchester fashion scene (real talk) tell me that the employees of one major brand all got vibrators this year

After being furloughed in March for three weeks I was asked if I’d go back to work cos it was so busy, and I agreed. Everyone else got three months paid furlough. We had our best year in over 20 years, and we all worked through the pandemic and no-one got sick.

We each got sweet fuck all for Christmas. Not even a card. Cheers.

We all got lovely little succulent plants this year, I really like mine... And got paid a full day for a half day on Christmas Eve, that was nice... We've worked hard this year, tricky times...
