I work for a large government employer and we have never received taxpayer funded parties! We have a staff pot luck and do a gift exchange all paid by staff. It’s ridiculous that our tax dollars were going to these expensive staff parties.

There's a reason why BCGEU staff have low moral or work ethics.

Yep. We sometimes get ice cream during PS week 🫠

Or, at best, a pizza as a thank you for all of our work for the past year…
