Warmen loves Christmas
First a little bit of history. I work with approximately 12 people 9 of which are females. I am the oldest employee. We have various fun outings and apparently I am the one that is in charge of organizing these outings. I have organized a few fun things and they went well. Was the man; but it all turned sour 2 years ago. The build up to Christmas and the need to organize a Christmas party. Ok no problem.

I book a nice restaurant that everyone agreed to and I say be there at 12 noon. I get there at approximately 11:45 sit down and have a beer and wait…….and wait……and wait and if you know me I am burning inside ; totally pissed off. They do show but too late I am done. I quit. Oh yes I am not one to hide my feelings. They all knew I was pissed off.
I was persuaded to give it another go.

I was out at the end of October and reserve a large table at a nice restaurant that has Christmas decorations, a tree a fireplace the whole bit. I tell everyone be there at 12 noon. That’s it. Now the emails start. “I may be there”. “I will be late.” I cannot attend for blah…blah….
What do I do? I cancel the whole thing and to hell with everyone. They were all pissed off at me.

We always set up a Christmas tree in the office. The tree was loaned to us by a friend who used to be in our department but has moved on down the hall. He comes over and asks for his tree so I say no problem. I am now in deep shit over that one. Our decorating party is today Dec 4 and we have no tree.
PS. I told those cheap sob 2 years ago to spring for a tree. $20-$30 will get you a pretty nice one but no they are so cheap . So this is what you get.
