Is your boss Santa or Scrooge?

So is the boss Santa or Scrooge...

Do you have the day off or at the very least get to leave at lunch?

Or are you working beyond lunch?

Merry Christmas to all at Shrimperzone!

For once in a while I'm not actually working Christmas Day which is a bummer, because doing 2hrs work for 36 hours pay like I did last year is sweet :)

 

[Jedi Shrimper]

We're packing up work now, and they're providing nibbles & giving us xmas presents (as money is tighter this year it's a few bottled ales for me instead of the usual Jack daniels), then we'll be free to go about 2pm.

I left at 11:50, although to get that privilege I did have to start at 8am.

Back in at 8am next Tuesday. Doh.

no work at all today :). Worked out well this year with five days off without taking any annual leave, schweet.

Well I'm off sick at the moment, but we would have finished today and then shut down until the 5th of Jan.

I got my christmas bonus through the post yesterday, £25 of high street vouchers considering the year we have had I wasn't expecting anything!

 

[EastStandBlue]

Been off since last Wednesday...

Where is the 3rd option, The same old C?

I was hoping to get away for a few day prior to & over New Year with the other half. I told my boss this over a month ago & on Tuesday, via a colleague (equal standing) I was told I had to do a couple of hours work on NYE or get a written warning!!! My immediate manager said he was not doing it due to his "rank!"

I hope their balls drop off, the bunch of womens front bottoms!

:madman:

 

[southend4ever]

No one is here in the office anymore scary

 

[jassyfa1]

Should had finished at 10.30, instead had to stay on till after 1pm due to our delivery driver turning up late and deciding to have a go slow day.

 

[OldBlueLady]

Well, I bloody hope someone is still working cos I've got a parcel from Amazon posted last Friday which should have been here two days ago!

 

[Ayrshire Blue]

Finished up last Thursday

My boss is an absolute ****ing ****. Worked with him for 10 years almost, doesn't do anything for us for Christmas. A guy who recently worked for him for 12 years left and he couldn't be arsed to do a card or present, poor bloke got nothing. Also remember my last day in the office before my wedding, everyone else was like 'good luck' and i got a card and vouchers he didn't even shake my hand. Made some grunt when my daughter was born like 'your lifes over'. To be honest he is scrooge and ****ing ****.

Sorry! Happy Christmas.

I told my boss that I am having a week off over christmas and if he didn't like he could shove his job up his a**e. I then stopped looking in the mirror and shoved a whole satsuma in my mouth......you cant beat being self employed!

 

[The General]

It was actually my day off today but went in and did about 4 hours work for about 9 hours pay. I cleared alot of large packets but i fear that there will still be about 20/25 sitting in the office, along with the mail for all the Garrison!

Im off next week so no work till Mon 4th Jan!

:)

 

[Gt Yarmouth Shrimper]

Gave my employee the week off, but am getting him back in on Monday. Normally give him a christmas bonus, but this year has been tough for SME's so he has had to go without. Does that make me scrooge or santa?
