Re: QOTD 12/11

  • My office does an absolutely riotous Secret Santa week which involves not only gifts, but also pranks, bribes, general shenanigans, and the occasional tutu.

  • I used to bake for my friends and co-workers in the lab. I made everyone a big box of Italian cookies and homemade pasta every year.

  • Our office is lame. But, a few of us decided to have an unofficial official Christmas party this year including a gift exchange. We are doing a secret santa exchange. I'm pretty excited about it.

  • No.  I give gifts to certain people, but nothing official.
  • Nope.  /My work is lame and they don't do anything for the staff for Christmas.  Some people organized a secret Santa but I didn't participate because I think they are kind of a waste of money.

  • We used to do a white elephant thing at the Christmas party.  We didn't this year.

  • Yep. At least in our lab anyway. We usually get each other lottery tickets and something small. Last year I think I got bath and body works items, a coffee mug and a cocoa mix set with one of those chocolate spoons to mix.

    I go a bit nuts with my gifts to them. My first Christmas there I got them gift cards for Sheetz. Second year I got them lotto tickets and gift cards again. Last year was cross stitched ornaments with their names and flasks on them. This year is homemade candle year.

  • No, we've never done that and I don't think we ever will.  We have more than enough people to buy for and I don't need that list getting any longer than it has to be.

  • We have a fairly small number of girls in our shop so we are doing secret santa and a Christmas dinner :)
  • We do secret santa (only for those who want to) and then have a staff Christmas party the day the kids leave a half day. We're going out for lunch. I got my teammates presents last year. I probably will for my teammates this year, but something small.

  • I wish we all could do a Secret Santa!  Maybe next year ;)

  • We do a secret Santa and cards for everyone. The bosses throw a christmas party (free food and booze) and they give out gift certificates and lottery tickets.

  • Also, I work for an Orthodox Jewish company. Christmas isn't really celebrated at all.
