    It's christmassssssss

    Ok technically it's mad or black eye Friday but for most of us it's the last invoicing day of the year.

    So what is everyone doing once they walk out the door at 3pm?
    merely at clientco for the entertainment

    Back in the 90s we always used to decorate all the ceilings with paper chains and the like. Does anyone still do that stuff? (Did you ever do it?)

        A very trying morning beckons, I feel. Team night out last night (not current clientco team of course, a previous team). Managed less than 2 hours kip and now into office for subbing timesheet and sitting very still indeed until curent team eff off on their team lunch/afternoon piss up.

        Mad Friday btw (though black eye Friday is a fair description too). Jingle all the way

            My last day with this client. I have some work I need to get done, but I've heard rumours that the permies will all bugger off at lunchtime to get pissed for the rest of the day. As I'll need to hand in my laptop before I go, I guess I'll need to disappear when they do... Oh dear, what a pity.

              They haven't thought this through very well. You're going to be completely wankered by then.

              10 days into bench time here so will be picking up YG1 from school and then the holidays have landed!

                    You mean you have to do fixed hours

                    Will probably still be in the office at 6 but won't be working. Just waiting for the family to arrive as we migrate South for Winter....
