    Anyone else on the starting blocks to make an early burst today, Christmas break-up day.. Rush to the nearest pub, sink a few quick one's. Have the craic, completely wind down and switch off..

    Oh I love this day.

    Everyone's out of here starting now, I'm stuck until at least 6:30pm and then Marto is burning rubber out of here..

    Oh, the excitement of it all.

    A few drinks, home for an early chinkers & shower, then hit the local..

    Yum yumm (butterflies in the tummy :) )

    We're being taken for lunch today at 3pm. So we'll have a good few drinks and not return to the office. So I'm basically finished at 3pm. I'm counting down the hours. Only 2 hours and 40 minutes!

    Killing time until they let us off early. Seriously, i've got nothing to do. And then they went and gave me a bottle of wine, and expect me not to drink it?? Craaaazy.

    Was out last night. Got to bed at about half three and I was in work this morning at seven.

    Off at half three and going straight to bed.

    I might get up on Sunday, haven't decided yet.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 966 ✭✭✭GerryRyan


    Near on 3 weeks holiday from college :) just going to sit back, relax, and break open the bottle of brandy come Christmas morning. Wooh


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,596 ✭✭✭RubyXI


    Last day. Finishing at 5.30. I was hoping they'd let us out early, they did last year, but no word of it yet :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,277 ✭✭✭✭Rb


    I worked 8 til 5 today, could have left at half 3 if I wanted to but wasn't that interested, too competitive for the commission etc and there'd be nothing better to do at that time.

    Off now, bar the 29th, until the 9th of January so am fairly psyched about that.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,821 ✭✭✭RxQueen


    yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyy drinky time here !


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,166 ✭✭✭✭Zzippy


    Our office has a policy - you can't accept a gift from a supplier, etc, so we pool them all and draw lots to see who gets what - I got a bottle of whiskey and a bottle of wine.... well, there's a tiny drop of wine left and the whiskey has been opened! :D
    Looking forward to a few scoops tonight, and tomorrow, and Sunday, and Monday, and......


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,784 ✭✭✭Dirk Gently


    Sitting here on me own in the office with a few bottles of manky cheap larger, not answering the phone and avoiding taking on any sort of work. Most of the rest have abandoned ship and I'll be doing the same about 7 or 8 and then hitting the pub for as many free drinks on the boss's tab as I can.
