i believe so but it hasn't been announced yet, and it doesn't take place at the office. i've heard it's going to be at wild wing, in which case i don't really want to go...

we had ours on tuesday which included a raffle, potluck lunch with too much food, a raffle, ugly sweater and a decorated door competition. sadly, since half of the people that work here are in recovery, we don't get any beer. but our agency gives all of us the week of Christmas off- paid :)
and i won the door competition along with the trophy i made for the contest :)

we did a christmas luncheon put together by the woman who heads are department, who i've known years before i even started my job because she also heads dietary at the hospital where my mom works. so i was excited because i knew prior that she's a really good cook. we had the luncheon in the private dining room (i work at an assisted living facility so we have the main dining room and the smaller private dining room). she had the table decorated really nice. she had these little gift stockings for everyone filled with candy. we had shrimp cocktail as a starter, then our main course was filet mignon (which was fucking perfect), dutchess potatoes, and fresh vegetables, and she made this chocolate bundt cake with raspberry sauce for dessert. it was so so so yummy and amazing and i've never had a boss put that much effort into doing something for their employees.

I think last year I got a free bottle of Stoli from work. I don't know if we're doing anything like that this year.

well, i work at a preschool and although we did not have a party, a bunch of the kids' parents sent in food and holiday treats so we've been enjoying those all week. also, i got a picture of all the kids on festive holiday paper and it's pretty adorable. they gave all the teachers one. :)

We pretty much have a big luncheon in a room filled with a crapload of food. The managers supply ham, chicken, and roast beef and evryone else brings a side dish or drinks etc.

hardly... they put out platters of like, carrots and dip, cheese and crackers, cold cuts to make sandwiches, and maybe some cookies in the break room and allow you to have some on your break. needless to say, most of the food is pretty gross by the end of the day. shaw's supermarket, always classy!
