Work Christmas Dinner

Email going round at client's site discussing the Christmas dinner. It's September FFS!

But there already appear to be arguments, splits and rival factions. As I speak a splinter group are attempting to organise a covert curry night.

We're also going to the same place as last year. No debate, we have to "put up or shut up". Wouldn't mind but last year was rubbish.

It's pretty much the only social event of the year here at ClientCo. Really boring bunch here. At my last client we had three Xmas do's in one week plus an informal p*ss up on the Monday.

They had meetings about clientcos xmas dinner here in july.

Apparently it will be an evening of playing wii fit with food and wine. Joy

Contractors have to fork out £50 for the priviledge.

Last year I was invited to Clientco Christmas lunch and told as we were entering the restaurant that as a contractor I would have to pay for myself - £50 !!

Emphasises as per previous posts what a kn*b my previous boss was.

Won't be doing that again this year. No.
