Do you have Christmas decorations up in your workplace?

    No-one's said we can't but equally none of us want them.

    I have been campaigning for a Christmas Tree for years, but no, we have nothing. Not even a string of tinsel. In fact, apart from the heating being on it could be June for all I know.

    Good grief its all sounding a bit Dickensian in this thread...half expecting old Jacob Marley to make an appearance in a minute...good luck with your campaign I hope you win. :)

    I have them up in my flat, and as I work from home, that would be the same thing.

    Not allowed, no. Not even Christmas Cards. FOD risk, you see.

    We have a tree in reception by the front door. On my way out of the office this evening I saw saw colleagues putting up some garish pink tinsel over the desks. My thoughts on that particular matter shall remain a secret.

    We have ours up and I have to say they are looking very festive.

    It's lovely to see the usually drab, depressing office festooned with tinsel and lights :D

    Not yet. The person who usually puts them up has already gone on her holidays.

    No, we have nothing. But that's more because we have more important things to worry about.

    Do you? Or is this another in your seemingly never-ending line of 'ask a strange question and run' threads?

    Yes. I work in retail we have basically everything covered in crap. Well, everything we sell.
  • malpascmalpasc Posts: 9,626

    Yes we will do. I'm in charge of decorating it. I was so sick of people bringing in non-matching, un-coordinated tatty Christmas decorations from home that I've put myself in charge. The office tree WILL be tasteful and non-clashing!

    We put up a small tree and some tinsel today.

    It looks quite good to be fair.

    We also had a CD of Christmas songs on this morning to get us in the mood!
