This is a question Office Christmas Parties

My office this year is having Christmas lunch. In the office. On some desks we are going to clear the monitors off. The computers underneath will keep running as we are behind on some deadlines and need to keep rendering.

OK, so some people aren't getting anything, but how Scrooge-like are your bosses when it comes to Christmas?

ugh
Several years ago our company got taken over byb another one and we were all invited to the new company Xmas bash where they had hired a club for about 200, laid on a massive all night buffet and free bar and transport home which was very good of them.

Of course we all took the piss and got utterly utterly hammered. One of our team took it upon himself to encourage all and sundry to partake in an almost never ending tequila slammer competition at the bar, which ended when he puked through his nose all over the bar top, got kickeed out and ended up sleeping in a chip shop doorway.

I embarrassed myself by saying to my new bos, 'you know your problem, your just a happy baby orangutan' and banging on to senior managememt about how it was a great party but where were all the class A's. Oh dear. Several of us fell over on the dance floor as well.

In the minibus on the way home we stopped at a service station and nicked all the presents under the display christmas tree, which turned out to be mouldy bread wrapped up in gift paper.

Surprisingly everyone was alright about it all next day, after the embarrassed apologies, although the guy who puked on the bar top didn't last a great deal longer with the company.

Happy days.
