'Twas the night before Christmas, soft snow on the ground, In the quiet of HR, no one made a sound. Zieggy was nestled, a file on his lap, Dreaming of bonuses, readying a nap. Kristin and Beth whispered tales of delight, While Jeannie and Jessa trimmed the tree bright. Steve hung the stockings with great care and flair, Flor wrapped the presents, a ribbon in her hair. Carmen hummed carols, her voice filled the room, Summerlyn added a touch to the fume. Andre cracked a smile, his heart full of cheer, As the clock ticked towards the end of the year. Under twinkling lights, all differences fade, Together they laughed, a warm bond they made. For on this Eve, amidst paperwork's clasp, 'Twas friendship and joy that they chose to grasp.
