Coles gave me a box of choclates, with I'm guessing about 7 or 8 chocolates in it.

Me too, not bad chocolates though, even if it does sound like a build up of belly button fluff.

I got a funky Isabella 5 piece pasta bowl set, a loofa/soap/bath bomb/moisturiser pack * 2.... and red rooster and BBQ lunch at De Bortoli winery........ But was too hung over to enjoy the alcohol!!!

So its the Lindt chocolates in the triangle box again?

Might have to go into work and track them down. Damn trainees

Yep.

My employers are also known as the New South Wales Government.

ditto, except Vic Govt for me. therefore I got sweet FA

 

[Spidergirl~RiCkChiCk]

my dad says its good to work for the govt

 

[sussudio]

you get a certain measure of job security (although not as much as in the past) however, you are seriously undervalued as an employee.

 

[TheMase]

Yep thats right.
To the employers, you are really just a number on the system.


Last year when I was working in my old position, we had a Christmas Lunch. All expenses paid, and the bar was open for us to get drinks

Good experience that.
Coming home on that Friday night ****ed on the train was also entertaining

I got a pay rise, bonus (all spent now god damm it!!) and an awesome Christmas dinner, where we all (my workmates and I) went to a restaurant 1 hour out of town specialising in seafood and scoffed down about 50 dozen Kilpatrick oysters!! Mmmmm!
Then we had shooter contests, drunk each other under the table and stumbled back on to the bus to take us into town to the local pub!

Awesome evening - and A MERRY CHRISTMAS TO MY EMPLOYER!!

To quote Sbaggy - 'I love youse all'

Hmm not so sure about that. I was back in town the week before last catching up with former workmates, who can truly be described as 'Vic Govt'. They gave me a magnum of champagne, chocolates, a book, and a lovely, beautiful, great big.......................... wooden spoon!
Ha bloody ha, who said politicians and their staffers don't have a sense of humour!

"Sciatica is the term given to pain down the leg, which is caused by irritation of the main nerve into the leg, the sciatic nerve. This pain tends to be caused where the nerves pass through and emerge from the lower bones of the spine (lumbar vertebrae). Much of the advice regarding this condition is the same as that for lower back pain."

Xmas 2000 I received his & her gold & diamond Rolexs from a client (relo of UAE royalty), which is sort of from work (doubled as wedding gift also).
Xmas 2001 Big screen TV. Too tacky for house so sold. Kept Bose speakers and amp.
Xmas 2002, I received a cheap arse hamper full of pate' I can't pronounce. Mum and dad investors can get stuffed. (along with my MD)

Only the hamper went on the gift register
