eyetea Posted December 17, 2014 Posted December 17, 2014 Go round to sort problems in reception, few other offices etc and minimum of 3-4 cards on each desk... me with 1 card from a random student who just comes in the office now and then..! Was chatting to the site team when someone comes in with a box of chocolates and says thanks to them! I just sat there twiddling my thumbs!
Gibbo Posted December 17, 2014 Posted December 17, 2014 Not a bad haul for us this year and we're only part way into the week and already eaten some of it. The bag was full of bars of cadbury's chocolate and hob nobs! http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c134/gibbo501/IMG_20141217_095915472.jpg 1

Garacesh Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 1.5 days to go and we still ain't got nothin'.. So I took it upon myself to bring in a tub of quality street.. At least we can pretend 1
witch Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 I would love to analyse why some people seem to get a lot of things at Christmas and some of us - even those in small schools where everybody knows you - get very little. I pride myself on being helpful, approachable and willing to pitch in with whatever needs doing - but I still don't get anything. Thinking about it, most presents come from parents rather than staff and of course they have less than no idea who I am or what I do
aleach2 Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 We must be doing something right, a dozen cards, a bottle of port, Champagne, 6 pack of beer, 3 Terry's chocolate oranges and a box of quality street. Still got tomorrow to go

madurham Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 2 box of chocolates. 1 tin of chocolates. 1 pringle tin of chocolates. No cards. Dunno if i should be cheerful or gloomy. You're lucky chocolate increases serotonin levels then.
MattDLEA Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 Finished yesterday 2 schools . No cards and only 1 box of chocolates
Smee Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 nothing, not a single card or even a slightly squashed quality street. Not surprised, been here nearly 8 years and half the staff still don't know when I work. Finish work tomorrow at 12 and they won't see me for dust and wheel spins as I leave the car park ;p have a very good break guys xxx
