I just got word that the company I work for is now 8 years running and my boss is buying us all dinner (up to $50) to celebrate. This is a good indicator of how we are doing in this worsening economy.
I plan to go to my favorite Italian place this weekend which is on the pricier side. I have been craving some good pasta and now is the time to cash in. Sometimes the perks of my job make it worth the constant headache it seems to give me these days.
