Publicly employed individuals around the country are once again figuring out how they should scratch a couple of pennies together to best enjoy their Christmas party.

With December rolling around again, the majority of nurses, teachers, health professionals, and public sector employees (except the managerial class of course) are enjoying their annual reminder that the government can't even shout em a drink to say thanks for all the shit they've had to put up with this year.

"Always a really nice token of appreciation," said local paediatric nurse Jenny Risen.

"To be allocated a nice 25 dollar a head budget and told to buy drinks off our own card."

Betoota Public School Year 3 Teacher Ali Battle echoed those sentiments.

"I'm glad it's not my turn to host this years Chrissy party," she laughed.

"And look I get the reasoning behind us not being given money to buy alcohol, but it's a Christmas Party for fucksake."

"Any Australian who has an issue with a few taxpayer dollars being spent on some people enjoying a drink to celebrate the end of the year needs to have a good hard look at themselves."

"Particularly when we let government's just tear up billions on contractual fuckups for submarines or hundreds of millions on unmerited carparks."

"But that's just me."
