Your christmas presents

Brian mc21 · 12-23-2012, 11:46 AM

Well I work for a local council in one of those highly prized solid gold council jobs and got the same this year as we get every year. Fuck all. Some cool presents in there. Enjoy.

How dirty exactly?

We usually do the same for our full time employees. Not as much this year though, 50 quid for staff and 100 quid for supervisors. Apart from the previously mentioned bottle of plonk we partners gave ourselves... fuck all!

Not complaining mind. We're still here after a tough few years and though we don't pay ourselves much we do have the odd BMW/Audi shaped perk.

Which unless I've missed something we still haven't seen!

Sparky68 · 12-23-2012, 01:17 PM

I did get 10k as well but had to earn that!

Hah... Sod!!!

Its the best present I ever got. Friend of one of her friends knows Bacary Sagna. He took out to training and got it signed by the entire first team squad...

mowflow · 12-23-2012, 06:45 PM

I get paid tomorrow and I fully expect fuck all apart from the normal wage. We got SFA last year and I think that set the precedence after several years of decent bonuses.

Not to worry Mega. Get some stain devil in the wash with that shirt and it should come out good as new.

nobby810996 · 12-24-2012, 02:36 AM

Wouldn't complain if my mrs came back with a Liverpool one - would be framed and on permanent display.

Here's my present to myself

Coolest Boss ever... I hope to be that kind of Boss someday. I would give the choice though, wheels or cash...

magic77 · 12-25-2012, 04:26 PM

Well from being part of a large software firm we got jack well £20 love to shop vouchers big wow. Had to pay for our own xmas party even.

Luckily have a great wife and as usually after setting budget on max to spend she blew it and treated me to few nice something somethings.

Best and its cheesy I know was spending xmas day with my two little girls other bits where just a nice bonus. Now if only I can find the stig in the damm topgear puzzle we bought for my 4 year old I'll be happy

Sparky68 · 12-25-2012, 05:04 PM

Treated the car to a AA chargepipe and BOV. Well it is Christmas

Kerr · 12-25-2012, 05:21 PM

Got all the usual stuff from the family.

The girlfriend got me Issey Miyake aftershave, wallet, Laphroig and a Silverstone voucher.

Whisky is going down and treat and the others will do soon.

Sparky68 · 12-25-2012, 05:30 PM

It gives you the option of choosing.

There is various cars from the 370z, GTR, DB9, 360, Exige, single seater experience or rallying.

Will need to double it up with a weekend away.
