It's an OO world.

...is to be allowed to spend a part of my work time doing private projects - like the Google employees...
That would be neat.

I wish this is not going to be last year for this planet as the prophecies say and also some films have been made about the year 2012.
Also they are not all of the reason for my wish, If you look at the overall financial and political and social situation of the world you may have some considerations like me

Stop listening to the Sky Pixie Fanciers, and calm down.
Even if what they "predict" was true (and experience says they are full of bullshit like they have been so many times in the past) is there anything useful you could do? Either to stop it, or make it better?
And won't you feel a proper idiot if you assume it is all going to happen and prepare yourself by selling everything, and abandoning yourself to wild debauchery, (or penance, I'm broad minded) and it doesn't happen?

Thank you for your warm and hopeful message And I wish that it doesn't happen.
But I don't understand who downvoted me for expressing my wishes and reduced my score 16 points !

Here's two upvotes!
I also wish it doesn't happen, but that doesn't mean we won't have a global economical collapse next year, whether it will match(*) a doomsday prophecy being irrelevant to the question.

Thank you for your support Dear Julien
Yes I agree with you. And also closing our eyes to some clues and signals which come out from the news is not a wise approach.
Have a good new year

Yes, let's all have a happy new year, whether or not it's the last

I try to think of the prophecy from a different perspective.
I want to believe that it will happen, but not as the end, but a new beginning. The world is so full of cruelty that sometimes is unbearable to watch. Hopefully this new beginning will be a much better world.

Just for reference...

And last year it was the 1st option which was highly desired(37.70%).
May be it will be the same this year, let's see how it goes as we will have more voters this year compare to the last year(only 607).
