I work at a hotel, and we have our "christmas party" the second week of Jan. The ballrooms are just WAYYYYY to busy before Christmas. This year I think the banquets department is hosting 39 Chritsmas parties in 28 days, not including regular meetings, and the events hosted in the Bar and the Restaurant. At least 6 of those events are 475+ people. The Rotary Dream Auction for example was 483 people, 4 course Served meal. Served in an hour! The Banquests team rocks!

At our staff party there is booze. 2 free drinks, then $3.50 each after that.


As for pet peeves of the season: fake scents, thats just a headache waiting to happen.
I hate cranky clerks. You know its a busy season, you know people will be bitchy. I am in the customer service industry and I know I will get miserable people, but I try very hard not to let it affect my day. Its not fair to ruin someone elses shopping because the person half an hour ago needed to get laid, have a nap, have a drink, or simple was an ass. Just smile and be freindly.. its not that hard, even if you have to fake it a little.
