xmas party at work

I put in a 14+ hour day to put on our office christmas party (we have 21 employees plus a few wives/husbands etc). We rented a bunch of stuff to create a candlelight (and christmas light) dinner in our warehouse. We also had a social hour with an open bar (where I was the bartender) in our breakroom before hand.

It was a lot of work but I walked away with over $100 worth of stuff and $5 in unexpected tips. Here's a list of what I got

1 Liter of Bailey's
1.75 Liter of Korbel brandy
1 bottle of white wine
1 bottle of red wine
Taledega nights on DVD (won as a door prize)
3 wick cinnamon spice candle
3 gallons of eggnog
6 liters of soda
20lb bag of ice
AirStrike Pellet gun (won in dirty bingo)


Works for me!
