Business and Corporate Christmas Cards

HELP! I need TO write A holiday THANK you CARD FOR A BIG CUSTOMER OF MY BUSINESS!!!!!!!!!!!?

I need to write a Holiday thank you card for a BIG customer of my business. i have some idea of one like “Thank you for using our business for the past year! We wish you a merry christmass and a happy new year!”
something like that. so plz! help me!!!!!!!!

is this a good idea for a business?

so i have to compete in DECA and i decided to choose the entrepreneur category. the business would be a card (like b-day, holiday, etc.) version of paint the town (a place where you get to paint ceramics) and basically we would have all the supplies there and then ppl would come in to creat their own personalized cards.

i have to write a business proposal and wanted to know if this was a somewhat decent idea.

CHRISTIANS — Would you / Will you boycott any business which uses “Happy Holidays” &/or “Seasons Greetings”?

Specifically, a business which uses those greetings in ads, on posters, on employee name tags, etc, and does not specifically mention Christmas.

Anyone familiar with Hungarian traditions for christmas.. *christmas!!*?

I’m doing a project for school and since I’m Hungarian I chose to do my project on Hungary. And since our next MAJOR holiday is Christmas the project has to deal with Christmas. So put it together and you get, CHRISTMAS IN HUNGARY. yes, yes.
alright now down to business.
I have a few questions that I’ve been searching on the web but I couldn’t find any reasonable answers to.

1.) What does the Hungarian santa (Mikulas) look like?
ex. the american santa is fat and jolly with a white beard, black boots, and a red outfit. *JUST A BRIEF DESCRIPTION PLEASE!*
2.) Does the Mikulas have any Christmas greetings..?
ex. american santa: HO HO HO!
3.) What are a few traditional meals that Hungarians eat on Christmas?
4.) Do the Hungarian’s decorate?
ex. american’s decorate their house and a tree.
5.) Does Mikulas drive a sleigh, does he have helpers, and what does he do to the bad kids?
6.) Do Hungarians have any other traditions that they do…?

Any answers would be helpful but I prefer short

How do you react if you only got a $.30 cent raise for the year?

I am an applications support analyst making 14.15 per hour. Started a year and a half ago after graduating with a BA in Business Admin concentrating in Mgt information systems. Review was meeting expectation but only got a raise of $0.30!!this year.

When I asked why so less I was told that they started me at a pretty high rate and is unable to give me a large raise because the people who have been working here for 8 years only make about $1-2 more than me.

Obviously I am pretty upset about this and I feel that my hard work and ability has not paid off throughout the year and will be actively seeking for new employment with another firm. There is also no oppurtunities to move up. They said they do tuition reimbursement but when I asked about doing my MBA the program will not apply for MBA candidates. They only pay for BA’s and there is a limit of $3500/year is reimbursement.

We did not get anything for xmas, no bonus at all. Just a $25 gift card from the dpt vp ouf of his pocket!
Exactly! Thank you. I felt as if it was an insult to my ability. I have done so much, learnt so much in a short period of time and have been taking more work load than anyone else so that I can learn more and prove myself and I got a louse .30/hour. I’m dissapointed even at the response I got as to why its so low.
Yes, I never bring emotions out at work and I am trying to put together evidence of my good work by printing complimentary emails from my managers, accomplishments, work loads etc etc.

I am very professional and scored the highed you can on people skill and team work. I have so many managers sending praises about my patience in helping them etc to my boss.

So I will voice this out after the New Year and let it be known in a constructive manner. Talking to my boss is what I am thinking and leave it at that and look for a new job with better prospect and leave nicely. I just want them to know that no one else would be happy either so they dont repeat the same mistake.

Not to mention, the women in my group are B*TCHES to work with LOL. They stressed me and bullied me so much when I was new, I was about to burst one day but thk god I kept my cool and came back with a renewed version watching my back Allll the time.
FYI..I am happy with my life and what I do. This is just to get a reaction of general people to keep my own feelings in check to make sure I am not being too demanding. I am a Great employee and deserve to be paid more than what I got.
