    Ok, so got up for work this morning, still feeling pissed from last night (yay Christmas party) so decided not to drive but to get the bus. Went to get the bus but need change. The cash mashine only had 50s, got out 50 went to buy cigarettes to get change for the bus. They didn't have any change, went to the next shop down, walked out and the bus flew past me. Waited until my feet frooze for the next bus. Just got into work and took off my coat only for me to realise that the funny smell I'd been getting was from my jumper. My cat peed on it this morning. So how's everyone else doing?:eek::mad::(

    Got into work at quarter to seven this morning, -10 the car read, went to pull up the shutters and my fingers froze to them, spent the next forty five minutes trying to get them up by throwing hot water on them

    I was in at 7.30. Just had the annual handshake with the CEO. Slipping away in the next few minutes after he leaves our floor.

    Ahh, the things you gotta do to make your way up the ladder;)

    ^^ take notes from the guy caught marinating the cat in America recently. If you are going to do it don't run red lights or anything just stay at home and do it

    Swweeet!

    You arrive into work, floor the boss (punch or kick or a mix?) and then leave before 10.30 am. You sure do know how to celebrate Christmas
    :D

    I am in work since 8.30 but finishing in an hour yeeeehaaaaa.... Christmas pints with colleagues then home :)

    Not sure about the different feel but guess it depends where you're working.

    Being stuck in a half empty office with a bunch of hungover people doesn't inspire Christmas cheer :mad:

    Technically, I'm at work, because I have the laptop on, in my outlook waiting for one really important email. Although, I am in bed looking out at the snow with the telly on, so I'm not sure it counts.

    Just waiting on one bloody thing now and then I can switch off the laptop and go out and make a snowman and get in the festive spirit. yeay!

    To anyone complaining, work in a toy store on X-mas eve and then try complaining about your lot. This ain't bad at all.
