Good eve everyone. At last working hours was over. While waiting in the lobby for the elevator to go down, we noticed that some of our neighbors door already have Christmas wreath and decors. For sure their offices also have Christmas decors inside. Some to have lights, some are wreaths and others has Christmas balls. Indeed Christmas spirits is already around the corner. Well our office dont have any Christmas decors at all since our messenger is quite busy in doing some errands. Did you already put Christmas decors in your work/office? Do you used to put Christmas decors or decorations at work/office if their are occasions? Be safe everyone.

we normally also decorate during Christmas time. we put lights in our plants and trees outside, put decors on ceilings, walls, and doors. And we also have big/tall Christmas trees which are placed on the lobby and another on the hallways. But I wondered why it was not yet prepared now... Maybe the utility will do it this weekend. Advance Merry Christmas to you!

Yes maybe they are quite busy too in other things and some errands. What I am looking forward is the Christmas tree in the reception of our building which is really beautiful and amazing. Usually they used to change motif every year so I am looking forward for what motif for this year.

Christmas spirit and ambiance also give happy feeling for me.I do feel like I am a kid again.It brought happy feeling and hope no matter how hard life is. I guess we are using the same last year since as you have said, cost cutting.Better than nothing.

yes, I also think the same thing. But I heard they are planning to take out the decors from the stockroom. I am getting excited because Christmas ambience really gives me some sort of a happy feeling. unfortunately, our company is always in "cost-cutting" so we don't expect the motif or decors to change. But at least we noticed some new things last year (after how many years of seeing the same decors )

Our boss doesn't put Christmas decors at work. However, we have a Christmas Party on Christmas eve. We only feel Christmas when we go to shopping malls. They usually put Christmas decors everywhere. I hope our boss will put some this year. Merry Christmas in advance.

Yeah, you're right. He told us before that Christmas is not a big holiday in their country. It's only like an ordinary day to them. However, we have exchange gifts on the 24th and they prepare food for us. I hope there will be one again this year. We're looking forward to it now. LOL.

We also have Christmas decors in the house. Tree was already up when kids were asleep to avoid disturbances while doing it. No lights outside the house but it is planned already just undecided if we will still buy any additional lights to make it more wonderful.

Hey there! Yes, we decorate our workplace with Christmas ornaments. Now that I quit my job, I just don't think if they already have some decors up. But I guess they do. But you know what? Not only in the office that I see some decors up, when you go out in the streets, you could actually see Christmas decorations. Not that many as of yet, but still, there are already up. We're actually planning to decorate early in house as well. Since we have here 2 kids, I think that they would love it. :)

There is usually some level of Christmas decoration, but sadly it is usually very minimal. The company seem rather eluctant to spend very much on such items because they see it as a pointless expense. I think that it is quite understandable because I work in an office, so the decorations would only be seen by the staff. Obviously it would be different for a business that is open to the public.
@ardoy0731 (7308)

Your right, there some companies who just put minimal decors just to see Christmas around and there are some who really put grand decors that is really wonderful to see and to feel Christmas very much. In the office not less and not too much, just enough for the office.

In our office yet but here in the laboratory where we are working there's none. I haven't gone to our office since it was renovated and I am sure Christmas decorations are already up just like previous years. I love to see Christmas decorations and it gives me a different feeling. I don't know why or maybe it's because it reminds me of Christmas.

Hi, There goes the Christmas decors out of the mothballs once again, the one left by the rats after nesting on them for a year. At home, my wife is considering taking out the old Christmas tree and checking which one was spared, the colors of the flowers to match those balls she saw at the sidewalk downtown. Yes, the spirit is alive once again.
@ardoy0731 (7308)

Yeah the spirit is alive again and Christmas is fast approaching. We also put up our Christmas tree in the house while the kids are sleeping. Here in the office we don't have Christmas tree since there is no space to place it.Usually just wall and ceiling decors but lets see this year if there will be any changes.

Yes! we have Christmas decors both in our house and in my office. We really enjoy and feel the spirit of Christmas while we are putting the decorations on the walls, windows and to our tables. It is indeed a very special season that all of our families will be celebrating.

At the moment, we do not have any Christmas decorations yet here in the office as it is just November. But we were informed by the upper management that we can start decorating our cubicles when December 1 strikes!

Oh yes, some do have early November while others are once the December begins. I guess our office are also decorating by the start of December since the decorations are still in the warehouse.

Oh nice to know thag you have Christmas tree in your office. We dont tree in the office eversince I worked there, I dont know if they have before I enter their company. They said that there is no space to put it since it is quite tall and office is quite occupied with things that make the space narrow to put tree.

We normally decorate our office for Christmas. Our decorations are ugly though. We have these two wreaths that look like they're made of toilet bowl brushes. We haven't put anything up this year yet. We're probably get out the toilet bowl cleaners around the beginning of December.

hi ardoy0731. in my actual office, no christmas decors are up yet. i seriously doubt if we will be putting up christmas decors. i would assume that we won't be having any decors. however, the actual building where we have our office really outdid themselves this year. the building admin put up christmas decors as early as the first week of november. this early, i think they are done adding more decors. they have large christmas trees in the two main entrances plus a facade in each as well. in the corridors there are statues of either children posed like singing in a choir or santa's little helpers. there are also 'giant' christmas decors hanging from the ceiling as well as 'giant' gifts at each corner of the building. honestly, at first i was a bit overwhelmed with all the christmas decors and it was only yesterday that i got to appreciate the decors. anyway, each day fro the next two months, i look forward to seeing these christmas decors. cheers and happy mylotting!!!

Well, our office has an HRMO office, so that is their job in decorating our building...so we now actually feel the spirit of Christmas as our lobbies are fully decorated with Christmas lights and other decorations... And our house is also decorated with Christmas decors...I love the feeling of Christmas....it's so great.

Yeah the feeling and spirit of Christmas is really great and amazing. Its my favorite season actually and alway looking forward each year. Well usually our messenger is the one putting up the decors since it used ti place in the walls and ceilings. Building lobby/ reception dont have any decors for now but I guess they will start by next week.

I still can't feel the spirit of Christmas in the office. We do decorate or put some decors when Christmas is approaching, but I guess it's still too early for the management to decorate. We did have a real Christmas tree last year with ornaments on it. It smells really good and I'm not sure if our boss will buy the tree again this year. I hope so he will because I really love the smell of the tree . We rarely see those real ones being decorated here in our country.

Oh real one tree seems to be amazing to see and as you have said, its smell is really great. I guess it is quite expensive since it is a real one.

Oh least you have one now. We already put up our Christmas tree while the kids are sleeping so they don't make any disturbances so we could put it up easily and fast. Then when they saw it the next day, they were so happy and amaze when the saw colorful Christmas balls on it.
@enelym001 (8322)

We don't have and we will never have one here. My boss and workmates are all Muslim by religion, thus there is no reason for them to put Christmas decors. In this country, Christmas was not celebrated. Although they have celebrated something lately and will celebrate next week. With those celebrations some are putting lights (which we call Christmas lights in our country)... so I am just thinking that those lights are for Christmas.
@ardoy0731 (7308)

Oh well we have to respect them for what they are believing as they respect us in hat we are believing too. Well at least you assumed that those lights are for Christmas. What important is what's inside you are and what you are believing than what you see outside.
