We just had our department’s Christmas party last Friday and the company’s, last Saturday. It was fun. I had the chance to embarrass myself again by dancing in front of people, but it was all in the spirit and, of course, the reward. My group won first place!
The not-so-happy part of the merrymaking was the announcement that the company can only afford half-month worth of salary as Christmas bonus this year. Well, not as expected, but, at least, there is something. Why the optimism? A lot of companies are cancelling Christmas parties this year because of the ongoing economic slowdown. So, I’m thankful that we still had a Christmas party. Moreover, at least we still have a job. Plenty of people don't this Christmas.
