Rahz Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 8 hours ago, Corsair said: Quizzle for 10 October 2022: Do you decorate your home or office space for holidays? Very little. We put some decorations out for Halloween but only on the day and when they come in, the lights go out and that's the end of the evening. For Christmas we have the tree and a few other bits, but it's pretty much my wife's domain. Moving furniture and changing the decorations for a 1 day event hurts my brain. I certainly appreciate what some folks do in making their space look special for an event, but I'd much prefer let others deal with it. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do a bit at home for Christmas. It's mostly just putting out the weird, Christmas-themed knickknacks we seem to be acquiring (I got a wooden, deer-headed soldier holding a present the other day). 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect management would have issues too, once they eventually found out, but I'm a lot more worried about Commercial Enforcement than corporate, as Commercial has fines whereas corporate is all "please don't do that again". 😛 That's too bad, I've seen some pretty tricked out trucks... 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And even if it was something I magically owned, I'd still prefer to have a nice plain truck that doesn't stand out. It already sticks out as a big red truck with white letters all over it 😛 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do Halloween (all year} & Christmas here in as grand a fashion as possible. I worked in the Visual Dept. at Sears one Christmas. It was a HORRIBLE experience; a true test of my faith. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strawhat Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 13 hours ago, Corsair said: Quizzle for 10 October 2022: Do you decorate your home or office space for holidays? Not really. Many years ago, I used to do a little bit around the office (when I was not at the company HQ). I had some Mardi Gras beads (just the generic cheap ones) that I would hang in the window of the cube-office. I would also put up some lights for Halloween and Christmas. After I moved desks from a cube-office to generic cube), I put up a plug-in pumpkin for Halloween and would also do the lights. When we moved buildings, I kind of hung it up. Sometimes I even miss it. Mrs. Strawhat takes care of the house. I'm actually largely indifferent to the home decorations. At the old house we would put a couple of the plug-in pumkins in the window for Halloween, but we really haven't done that here (but it's only the second year here). I'm not sure what her plans are for Christmas (beyond the usual inside stuff). 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not so much, the last couple of years; but I do usually get a gourd and turn it into a reasonably frightening lantern... 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sylverthorne Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Just now, Corsair said: Quizzle for 11 October 2022: Do you have a family member who drives you NUTS? .. does anyone not? Most of my family makes me want to chew the walls occasionally; I'm pretty sure that's just how that goes. Suspect I'm a source of madness myself, eh? 😛 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay fine, yeah, my mother. I could go on a long winded rant, but I'd rather go back to cleaning the living room, as the energy would be put to better use. My mother in law is definitely in that category too... My uncle was an awesome guy. Still is, just can't talk with him anymore. Many cousins are probably good too, but I kind of ignore/avoid my extended family so... *shrugs* 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live far enough away from all of them it's not an issue. Probably I'm the one that drives them nuts, because I never did things the way they wanted me to. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it takes up to much storage for decorations every year. Space is at a premium. Also, tear down and staging would kill my energy level. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
