Should consider sending a Chrissie card to the bosses of the supermarkets, Argos etc. Wonder of they'd catch the hint when they think "Which numptie is sending Christmas cards at this time of year?"

I work for Woolworths and we are having Christmas (IT) stability meetings for what is called the 'Golden Quarter', we dont make much money the rest of the year (just tick over) so it is imperative that we are bang on the money for Christmas, we need to and people want it hence why it starts so early.

Get shopping at Woolies you lot, cracking company based on my four months there !

So, where are the cracks?
You know SNetters, more likely to try to make it the "Bronze Quarter" now you've revealed that.
