Sometimes my little pea brain can't quite wrap itself around the concept of a recession. My friends are losing their jobs, yes. Others are being threatened. My little company has even had a few "lay-offs"(read: fired!) as well. However, tonight, in order to keep morale high, we are all skipping down to our company holiday party for some merriment and funsies... even though I have a feeling that "keeping up appearances" had a lot to do with our choice of venue:
Some might say this is being paid for by rich people, so why not enjoy? But the sad reality is that I'm paying for this party. It's coming straight from the raise I deserve and the bonus I was expecting. I would frankly rather buy a cheap bottle of wine, order a pizza, and put the difference in my already dwindling savings account.
Oh well-- cheers!
