Guys, I worked in a French speaking country in Europe. The day before Christmas one year I will never forget.
We had a large datacenter and 10am that morning out came the champagne and croissants and by lunch we had pasta and sauce , Italian bread, wine …to say the least we did no work …The USA companies could take some lessons.

Suhr Sent: Saturday, April 5, 2014 5:16 PM To: IBM Mainframe Discussion List We kept a case of beer and a case of champagne under the raised floor in the computer room. It was very cool down there. For the days when celebrations were called for.

But: we already had no more punch cards in those years (mid to end 1980s). The solution is: two bottles of beer fitted very well in the punch card boxes ... and nobody noticed what was inside.
