    We all got a raise 10-15% and said no party due to increased expenses and the covid. Perfect.

    We have a bunch of people cut back to part time hours to save money, so I assume we'll have a Christmas party just as an extra fuck you to those people.

    Nope, I work for myself.

    Don’t think the fiancé’s company is having one either.

    I'm still a student and home-schooled due to Rona.
    Hoping to get drunk at the Xmas party and finger the teacher.

    Previous company was having one. Started at a new shop today and I think I heard they are not. My wife’s company is though.

    LoL!

    So it looks like we're getting a thing at a pub/restaurant that should be pretty decent. I assume it's free food & booze complete with Taxi chits, so I gotta find a need to spend the night in Turner Valley to "get my money's worth".
    No spouses, just workers, apparently.
