The Party
December 22, 2007
My Christmas Work Party was off the hook! I actually had a GREAT time and I was super impressed. First off, it was in a really nice place called The Palm at Caesar’s Palace. We had our choice of like salmon, chicken, filet mignon or some other dish. Most people chose the steak. We had a nice caesar or house salad to choose from and best of all was the freakin creamed corn and horseradish mashed potatoes. They are like specialities of the restaurant and they were fabulous.
Don is like the best person ever to take to a function like this, he’s intelligent, friendly, social and doesn’t get nervous at “work” functions. So, I don’t have to babysit him when we are out, he talks to people and I can off and do my own thing. Good thing too because the Senior Project Manager on the Electrical side sat at my table along with the Senior Project Manager on the Mechanical side. Once we started talking about poker, I found out that my company actually did the engineering design for Howard Lederer’s house. That’s amazing because my company only works on commercial buildings, which tells me that Howard’s house must be SWEET!
At any rate, they had a raffle and gave away door prizes. Unfortunately I didn’t win, but good god - they gave away a really nice Ipod with a docking station, a digital camera, a digital picture frame and all kinds of good shit. My boss also played a game and if you got the answer correct (like naming all of the reindeer), you got a $100 bill. He probably gave away 5 of those. And then, best of all, we got Christmas bonuses at the end and they were pretty damn generous. So, all in all it was a HIT for sure. Can’t wait to do it again next year.
