Merry Frist-mas everyone!
Once 9am finally rolls around we are getting holiday bagels, muffins, and coffee.

${PreferredSeasonsGreetings:-Merry Christmas}

And thanks for a year of entertaining and sometimes sobering stories!

Company parties always felt fake to me. But if the boss is paying for drinks who am I to say no?
Admin
It's not the boss who is paying, it's the company, and in the end, it's all just "tax magic", and employees are expected to work harder the next days because they just "got something for free", so they're "owing the company"...

Our Christmas meal was a lovely lunch at a very nice country pub.
But I was still tempted to post to TDWTF about the crackers ... They came with a safety note: not suitable for children under 12 due to small parts, detailed instructions on how to pull them safely ...
The note was located INSIDE the cracker

That was a very posh place the first submitter went to if it had a balconay.

Sounds like the party on the ground floor was the place to be.

Fun fact: I proposed to my wife with a Christmas Cracker.
I'd just learned of their existence from a British browser game, and thought that having an engagement ring as part of the swag would be fun. (And yes, she liked it, and deigned to marry me.)

I will never work at a company where not every day is a casual dress day.
Admin
A dress code doesn't bother me. I started work in an era where a shirt and tie was pretty much mandatory for male employees. It really isn't that big a deal. However, the implication that people are expected to go into work on Christmas Day would be an enormous red flag.
