I've just been on the receiving end of a good deed...   and its made me sooo bloody happy!

 

Just finished work for crimbo...  got paid, got a lovely pressie off the bosses wife (a really nice handbag)...  & when I got home I opened the christmas card & there was a big wedge of christmas bonus in there!

 

 

SOOOOOO HAPPY!!!

 

Am off to The Range tomorrow to buy the dog some more pressies 

 

 

I think I should spread the happiness a bit...    I'm gonna donate a few quid to our local homeless night shelter 

Yes, you will feel dead good about it!!!

 

Awww..... this is a real feel good/christmassy cheer thread!

 

It's makes you wanna run outside and do good deeds!!!

 

I'm not gonna though.....cos I'm in my Jimjams already

 

But I'm going to sit in the warm and think of something I can do tomorrow.

me too!

 

and on the wine!

 

Guess MrD is picking the girl up later...  (that's what happens when you're the one with the car!)

 

Are you sure you didn't sabotage that U joint?

Not a very giving lot then

That was a really nice thing to do Zazz

That was really nice zazz, well done, Santa will be very happy with you Ditty that's great, it's nice to hear of a grateful boss! hope your doggy is doing well I was on the end of a good deed myself; I sometimes buy 2 newspapers to stock up for the rabbit hutch, and when the lady at the newsagents found out why I was buying 2, she saved up hers & her mums papers for me and brought them all in and waited til I went there! How very kind?! I wrote them both a nice thank you Christmas card I should do something else though, apart from giving the window cleaner extra

I didn't throttle any flipping children when I was out and about last minute xmas shopping yesterday..

 

Does that count?

the best I can say is that he isn't getting any worse.    Back to the vets in January...  time to MRI him from head to toe 

 

If I could wish for one thing this Christmas it would be that he was suddenly well & back to his old self 

What goes around comes around = load of bollox!! **wont be bothering with any more season of good will and all that shite **

 

 

Oh dear ... what's happened?

Ah, my useless $%&* of a boss has managed to $%&* up every ones  wages for Christmas....All the chefs have put in loads of hours in December for them thinking it will be happy days come pay day, but they cant even get that right, and, this bit really stings - NO christmas bonus!!!!! <------ THAT is the thanks you get for putting in 12 hour days New job for me in 2012 I tell thee!!! it really has p!ssed me off today, THOUGH I wont be letting it ruin my Christmas...after all, I have a Gypsie to keep me happy

Yes you do 

I had a similar thing - my boss did not sign off my petrol expense claim form so all the running around I have to do in my car I am doing for nothing atm because SHE is not organised. £95 worth of fuel may not seem much in the scheme of things but it all adds up

Anyway - you two and little gyps and the menagerie will gave a fab christmas anyway xxx

That's the spirit ... and at least you have some real practical cheffing experience on your CV now, so even though he is a pratt he has got your foot on the ladder.

 

Hope you have a great Christmas

I haven't got round to making a donation...    tbh after spending £300 at Tesco it might have to wait.

 

I did find, & hand in, someone's wedding ring on the floor in Tesco though...  if that counts 

 

It doesn't really does it    Not so much a good deed as just doing the right thing

just think tho.. if you didn't hand it it, some scally might have it away to 'cash for gold' by now.   

 

Zazz..  that sucks (I hate, hate, hate bosses that screw with people's wages - that should be sacrosanct in my book)    At least you'll not be skint in January though.

Agreed!
