Every office is busy on holding Christmas Party.
As a reasonable participant, you do not expect for anything more than food and drink. Some lucky guys would get prizes, they are nevertheless the minority. No matter the privileged ones or the rest, they tend to have the same afterthought. Complain. All the people would have the united comment on the lousy food. The one who gets the gift would jeer at its uselessness. Anyway, who is short of hand cream?
Christmas is now such a universal festival that even pagans are so fond of. We like exchanging gifts with friends. We like devouring sumptuous food with beloved ones. Gain seems to be destined. However, even the Pope reminded us that, there are many things beyond "consumerism" in the Yuletide.
What is the main theme of Christmas? While we are skimming those electronic Christmas cards, it would be nice to have a second thought on the word "grace" before we delete them. Take Christmas party as an example. Not to mention how routine it is, some people must be there to make it happen. Most of them are assigned, they have their own business to take care of. So, it would be gracious to appreciate what they have done, on top of the mundane stuff that all of us have to deal with.
Or the complainants just stand out and arrange a wonderful party for us next time, no?
