As far as perks, I actually haven't heard anything about the holiday party---one way or another---which makes me think it's probably out. A sure sign we're hurting is that we lost all power for TWO HOURS last week (snow related) and had to sit around waiting for it to come back. No sending us home early, no sir. Oh well. Thankful to still have a job and a paycheck, you know? We’ve had tons of layoffs at my company, and there’s been a salary freeze for over a year now.
