Saint Nicholas :)


          Sankt Nikolaus, in Germany, as well as worldwide within christian communities, is celebrated on 6th December. Every year, on this date, we commemorate the one that dedicated his life to serve Christ and taught the good through the power of his own example.

Why does he look like Santa Claus, some would ask themselves? Including our chinese colleague, Xi Huang, or even the Latin Americans? :)) 

            Traditionally, Nikolaus is associated with an old man that would visit children and reward them with little sweet gifts if they behaved well the entire year and with a little wood stick if not :)





And why were they so many in our office?
           1. Because we are a good good team that is very hard working?
               Yes, true, true...
           2. Well, Fiducia IT AG has its own tradition: every year, people working in the company can make  chocolate little Saint Nicholases gifts and express their good thoughts and wishes to their colleagues on a  card. The money paid for the gifts would then be raised and donated.




Here you can observe how amazed and curious my colleagues were... :))




And here, the joy and happiness... :) Our colleagues from Fiducia thought of us :)


 Imagine 5000 Saint Nicholases being delivered inside the whole company...
 We actually 'caught' one of Saint Nicholas's Assistant...Christian Schuler, also an intern at Fiducia IT AG.

 Thank you, Christian!



    Thank you, Fiducia!
