    They just didn't want runaway euphoria over the upcoming Christmas party to drag down productivity over the next eight months.

    Christmas party? Hell, we're hoping the lights are still on by then.

    The Christmas party at my last shop was canceled a few years ago.

    But the company still pays bonuses and provides country club memberships to executives - while watching ad revenue and circulation plunge.

    Thanks, guys. I wouldn't mind cutting some holes in those golden parachutes.
     
  6. We've been doing a carry-in for the past five years or so. To be honest, I like it better, and morale never seems to be higher than on that day.

    I imagine if corporate cancels our holiday party this year that we would organize something in the newsroom, pay for some pizza ourselves and have some fun with a Secret Santa.

    I will say, however, that a holiday party can be a real morale booster.

    In fact, it might be the only morale booster I received last year.
