Maybe after Xmas during the sales the price might come down a bit? My boss gave me a company desk diary that was unusual. The cover was put on back to front and upside down. I hope they got them all at a good price! My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

What is somebody going to do with something like that?! LOL! I can tell a lot of thought went into your bosses gift. Reminds me of the time one of my bosses (not at my current job) gave everyone a small bonus, and then in January told everyone they get to choose the "extra hours" they want to work to make up for the bonus! No joke! LOL! My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

I hope they got them all at a good price! Paul, every place I've went to work for yet, the minute they cut down on Christmas, it's like they go broke for some reason...the company changes hands. It's like saying mildly to not do your employees bad...think of them, even it's not much, but do something for them on your own...without being made to do so. I use to on my own as an supervisor bake cookies and give small stockings full of something for my own employees with my own money every year, and deliver in person on Christmas Day when they didn't have it off (medical facilty)...to let them know how much I appreciated them coming in that day. Little is the price of an coffee cup,ink pen..some something of that nature for the price of an loyal and good worker. Upside down and inside out, not sure of that one though...laughs* My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

They come rolled up in a tube and they're made of rubber. I've been meaning to get a new keyboard and these were only nine bucks, so I bought one for myself to give to my DH to put in my stocking. Never thought I'd be getting a computer keyboard in my stocking. lol My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions
