Do you have to pay for xmas party?

Nightwish

We dont get any contribution towards the christmas party. Imagine the uproar if people thought the HSE was giving money to staff for parties.

Misticles

ours was all paid for. even had a huge drink tab :):)

A free xmas bash is not an entitlement.

If you don't want to contribute towards a subsidised bash, then don't go.

Your company owes you a duty of care including a salary and benefits. Have you any concept of how much you cost your company after your salary, prsi, insurance, etc. has been paid? Your Xmas party is not a legitimate business expense.

Think of me when the economy falters and you are struggling to put food on the table. We bred and killed the Celtic tiger in a decade - it's offspring are dependent cubs, fat, lazy and spoiled on a diet of excess.

Damn what a moaner! This a forum for non serious goodness. Moaning allowed but non-serious.

BTW: How much do those employees make your compony?

Yeah exactly. A Christmas party may not be an entitlement but it would be a damn nice appreciative gesture from management.
