" I am going to make him an offer he can't refuse." - Pasta Mafia
The theme for this event is Pasta Mafia, and all the staff came dressed up to the theme. It was an exciting event as staff from outlets all across the island were given time off to prepare and turned up in their best.
The evening started with a very motivating speech from the CEO, sharing the vision of the company and achievements in 2011. The Long Service Awards was next up, as deserving individuals whom have contributed consistently and diligently were recognized by the company. Apart from the long service awards, the company presented awards to staff and outlets with best performance and encouraged others to achieve better results this year.
When the announcement for free flow started, everyone cheered and headed to the bar counters and got their rounds. As always, you cannot go wrong with music and drinks. After dinner, the emcee started some games contests and that got everyone cheering and clapping for their representatives on stage.
The organizers planned a special birthday surprise for a staff whose birthday falls on the actual day. It was a real sweet surprise for her and all the staff joined in the birthday song led by the emcee. When the time came for the dance floor to be opened, everyone poured onto the dance floor and some came onto the stage, showing their moves and gyrating to the beats.
After a dance segment, the emcee came on stage to conduct the lucky draw. Audience eagerly took out their invitation cards and waited for their numbers to be called. Top 10 prizes were presented on stage, and the remaining 190 prizes were pre-drawn.
Everyone continued dancing and just before the clock struck 12, Those whom did not win earlier were treated to another round of special draw as a surprise. It was a great way to top off the event on a high note!
