Long time, no blog! HAPPY HOLIDAYS! Office parties, gift exchanges and too much food in the workplace!


I've been so busy working that I haven't had time to blog.

Good news = I'm still employed

Bad news = I've missed blogging!

Here we are right smack dab in the middle, nearing the end of the annual office party.  It's a little late for my "reminders" about what to do and what not to do at the company party, but just in case you haven't celebrated yet - some general rules are "If you don't want to regret it on Monday morning, know your drink limit."

Now for the holiday gift giving tips.  Firms may or may not give holiday bonuses this year.  But, hey, at least it's not 2008.  And if you're reading this, you're probably employed.  So, that's the "up" side of getting yet another box of chocolates.

And finally, 'tis the season but all things in moderation.  When your vendor sends you a can of cookies, it might be a good idea to share them with your office services people and other co-workers.  It's better to give than to receive and I, for one, have no room for the extra pounds!
