Christmas Presents from Work?
« on: December 15, 2010, 03:21:33 PM »
Anyone get any branded nicknacks this year? or actually get something cool from their work for Christmas?

I got a branded camp chair this year, I think it will take residence in my Jeep. 8)

I followed a rainbow out to a garage and found a leprichaun. The rainbow ended in a potted cactus on his porch, but there was no gold :(

Me too. I also get to be on call on Christmas day. Then again, I bugger off for a solid week starting at 8AM on the 26th, so I'm not getting totally hosed.

2!!  Lucky...   'cuz I actually TOOK remembrance day (the unmitigated gall eh?), I work the 24'th as a regular day.

I think the only "branding" the company is doing is more like the cattle version than product stuff at my place  :o

I get to keep my job (for now) and have a handful of new projects tossed on my plate (though some may be fun).

and I get to work boxing day too, but they do pay double time and a half  that day ;D

Bonus? What is that?
New company (to me), really small (the boss and I), so I am not counting on a bonus (hence the name "bonus"), and no company shwag.... yet. I am working on it.
if we were smart with our money we wouldn't own Jeeps.
Here's your cup of STFU... ENJOY!
