Many opposed the idea of our toxic boss to have a Christmas party in a far resort because of the bomb threats and the earthquake rampage. Our Christmas Party will be on December 8, whole day in one of the beach resorts in Initao, Misamis Oriental 7th town from the city going to West. We are afraid but there is nothing we can do. Our boss is insensitive and insanely toxic. There will be 45 of us to celebrate Christmas in advance. We hired 3 private vans. I will send here photo during that party. I hope and pray for the safety of our party. May God protect us all.

Thanks for reading, sharing is caring.

To make a plan amidst the bomb threats is actually insane. Highly irresponsible to put so many lives at stake. I hope that all goes well and you have a great and safe celebration.

it's actually insane and that place is forested before reaching the beach resort. Many have a heavy heart.

@arunima25 we did it already and she's firmed. She said it's just a one day affair. She won't listen to the teachers.

@cacay1 Your boss can't act like a dictator. People can't be forced to go somewhere where they are not comfortable. You all should come forward and talk.

I guess your boss is quite egoistic. She needs to be sensitive with this matter.

@cacay1 She is really a one of a kind soul. I must admit that I cannot work with her. If ever I can just think of my job and continue working, she will be in hell for working there.

How completely thoughtless of your boss to risk everyone's lives over a party - that party really could be delayed til safer times. If you all decide to go, please stay safe . . . but if you can get out of going, that'd be better!

Some people tend to think that their ideas, culture, religion, plans are more important and larger than life itself. Sorry this is happening to you in what is supposed to be a happy and carefree time of the year. If you really have to go, I hope you have a safe trip and that you try to enjoy the time with your colleagues as best you can.

I would heard about the two powerful earthquakes that occurred there. I hope you are all doing well there. Yesterday, there was also a minor tremor in Manila. I suppose not as strong as the one you have been experiencing in Mindanao for the past few days. I believe you will simply enjoy the party and hope that there will be no more quakes in the coming days.

@cacay1 Yes, I heard about the earthquakes as well. It is unsettling to have those in your midst, one man-made and the other natural.

That's very insensitive! Maybe he just wanted to cheer everyone up because of all the earthquakes and bomb threats. He just doesn't know the right way to tell everyone that he is sympathizing. Or maybe he's just that!
