our brit boss was extremely pleased with the success of our department's xmas party last month he gave away gift certs as bonus to us major contributors. i for one was in charge of the entertainment & sound system. i was able to pull in juan pablo dream effortlessly who by the way was bathed with adoration by our big boss, which i'd like to reiterate, was my mission why i chose that band & their music in the first place.
here are a few of his gifts to us:
10 coupons of P200 discounts to the Spa
outback privilege card, a P500 gift card & a P500 discount card as added bonus, our boss planned an outback dinner for the group, w/ him, using the gift cards he gave away & pay the excess.
khaye, the lead-off person of the xmas party, & myself marked the 23rd for the dinner. i was on the morning shift so i was available 7pm onwards. most of us went ahead to the outback restaurant at the glorietta mall & our boss & other bosses arrived later. we started dinner by 9pm.
the facadei had the beef stroganoff fettuccine dinner plus my sangria which were firsts to my taste buds. the rest ordered the resto's specialty, steaks ofcourse. but prior to everything else, which resulted to not being able to finish my pasta, was the overload of starters. there were the famous bloomin' onions, the aussie cheesy fries (voted as the worst food in america, which unfortunately i only read later, due to its exuberant calorie content), kookabura wings (spicy!), & their very own spinach artichoke chips & dips (also spicy!). when our meals came, most of us were already full haha!
we all finished off w/ coffee & went home after midnight.
total bill for 12 people at outback? P14k in cash plus the gift cards. not cheap.
