FTA-TV First Dates - Part 6 - More episodes & series than you can poke with a suggestive mushroom

The most Ive ever had to fork out for a Xmas party were a couple of Hoyts ones (the other years I was there were free) which they made us pay for, around $45, so it wasn't too bad.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Is this the proper end of xmas thing?

*FWIW the one above i described isnt ours, the school picks up the bill for the formal one!


$200 is a ****ing cheek!

Nup that one is separate and that's in the last week of December. This is just the staff one too. Dead set drives me nuts, I'm friendly with them but seriously if half of them leave I won't care.

 

[Shell]

The retail one I went to = free and the school ones = free.

And the school ones include alcohol, so cant really complain there. Its just that they're so BORING, in the middle of the day.

LOL $200.

Tell em to get ****ed, theres a cost of living crisis ffs.

 

[Shell]

I am going to do my school KK and I have donated extensively- toys and food- to the charity drive.

I figure that is fair enough what I've contributed. No more.

It's all for drinks these girls and guys love their champagne and what not. We go through it every year, I flat out tell them don't make this in November and can't we just go to the pub instead

 

[Shell]

Honestly i reckon we should just do that say "forgo the dumb dinner everyone hates, use that $50 to buy toys for the drive" would be a better idea imho.

Yeah i tend to rather donate to my charities rather than a lunch etc

 

[Shell]

I cannot wait until Dec 14th about 12pm.

That's when I'll be DONE for the year.

 

[Shell]

And by the 18th be in the pool of my hotel in the city.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

It's what I'm big as a family, I get the younger ones in our family some presents, but we tend to do a donation to a few charities rather than get presents for the adults. The kids are not old enough to get it yet.

 

[Shell]

I have no nieces or nephew and unless something drastic happens in the next couple years, i never will.

Xmas is a very chilled time for me. No muss no fuss.

 

[Shell]

My aunty (mum's sister) and uncle puts on a lunch on the weekend prior to xmas, then my mum and dad puts on a lunch just for the five of us on the actual xmas day.

As we're estranged from the other side of my dad's family we dont see them.

 

[Shell]

So that's 20 mins travel time to my auntys and 8 min travel time to my mum's.

I usually go the gym as well on xmas day.

 

[74561347]

Loosen up and lighten up day.

74561347 get loose

I'm gonna need some meth and a target with no sense of humour

 

[Shell]

Then will head down the beach around.. the 30th I reckon. Am in no rush, I love driving down when the freeways are empty.

 

[74561347]

Yep got a similar one for work this week, $200 per head, first thing I asked was what on earth are we eating, proceed to find out its a buffet basically and it's to cover the drinks and I basically said to them, well what does it cost if I don't drink? It's my month detox so why should I pay for drinks!

Wrote back and said thanks but no thanks. Received another email today saying are you coming and if so why aren't you. I love and hate this company every single week.

I have better things to do than spend $200 which doesn't include the uber there and back or parking for a night where I don't even want to be there and can get a better meal at home

I haven't been to a single Xmas party that wasn't free piss, all others I refuse

I hate all workplaces think they are families and that I want to hang out with you after work

And Kris kringles can get f**ked, I say no every time. I hate you all so much you literally have to pay me to associate with you, I'm not buying you a present

Will you be my KK?

Yes, but if we ever end up working together it has to stop

At my old work the year I opted out of KK was the year I got the ugliest effing necklace ive ever seen. It was liked beaded (I wear silver jewelry) with things hanging off it, it was awful. I went to the shop where i knew it was purchased and it was like $20 down to $10. Yeah thanks tightass bastard.

Never did it again since.

And i always went over the $20 limit and put thought into what I bought.

 

[Shell]

And that was a faculty KK.

Just... yeah. really disappointing.
