Christmas is a week away, and already my office is in Holiday Mode. About a quarter of the office is out on vacation. The rest of us are "working" and gaining weight with the various gift baskets that arrive daily. Today it's homemade chocolate cake and a tray of cookies.
Tomorrow is our departmental holiday party, we're leaving at 11:30 to make it to the venue by 12:30. Afterwards, we're free to go home. Thursday is our in-office party, hosted by the supervisors, and it takes place between noon and 2pm. There will be little working, if at all, afterwards. Friday is well, Friday. Next Monday we leave early, obviously no work on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday are "normal" days, and I'm off Friday the 28th and Monday the 31st.
I love the holidays, don't you?! ;-)
