The Wine Bottle

I have been with my current firm for just over 6 months now.

In that time, I must admit I have learnt a great deal about everything related to the computer world.

I will admit, that at first I was rather embarrassed as some of the staff are more than half my age, and they knew more than I did. However, it is just something you have to take in your stride and grin and bear it. After all, they may be knowledgeable about their computers, but I have plenty of life experience and could certainly tell them a thing or two. They probably look at me and think I’m an old dinosaur, well past my sell by date and really boring. However, I think they would be totally shocked by some of my past antics and would certainly view me in a different light if they knew half the things I had got up to!!

The company I work for are very good to us and they really go out of their way to look after the staff.

We have a few computer consoles in the offices and at lunch time all the lads take part in their daily Xbox or Playstation challenge and it can get very riotous and competitive, however it is all taken in good spirit. We also lucky enough to have a pool table that they all use a great deal.

We also have a fantastic staff incentive scheme. This was set up for all members of staff who not only do a great job, but go a little further than they have to.

It’s a great scheme and members of staff can be nominated by their colleagues and then rewarded. So far I have managed to bag a great bottle of Spanish Wine and a fantastic bottle of French Wine.

As we do have some youngsters in the office, other rewards on offer are chocolates, beauty products and gift vouchers, after all we don’t want them drinking illegally.

A nice bottle of Italian Wine has just been added to the collection of goodies so I might just have to work a little bit harder to see if I can get nominated!!

Right now I am off to make tea for the gang and earn myself a few bonus points.
