So every year work has a black tie affair. I've been the last two years and am not going this year
office girl is, though. Kind of missed an opportunity there, I reckon. So instead, I shall be lonely on whatever that is. 9th, I think. I'm a little annoyed to be missing it.

Well, I could. Probably will. It's not quite the same though, is it.

Why aren’t you going?

Can't afford the Tux rental.

No. Kroney's Indian call centre wage doesn't extend to hiring other peoples' clothes.

Why have you decided not to go & and can you still arrange to go?

( Fucking hell Jeff I am not a robot, Mon 4 Mar 2013, 15:05, Reply)

It's not something you decide. It's an awards thing. It's all a little contrived, but it's an excuse to
go out all snazzied up. The reason I'm not going is down to the way it works. The company votes, proportionate voting, we've got more people in our team this year due to another manager throwing a hissy fit because everybody hates her department so she never gets to go, she tries to ride on our coat tails and stops all of us going.

Hahahahaha. Too shit to be invited!!
Which is an irony, cos you love shit.
(Set your faces to Stunned Bigly, Mon 4 Mar 2013, 15:09, Reply)

The amount of votes your department gets is divided by the amount of people in it
because some of our departments are over a hundred people and some have two people in it. Her latching onto us, because we're well successful and everybody loves my colleagues, increased the amount of people. We still got loads of votes, but nobody voted for her lot. Net loss for Kroney :(

That's the fucking shittest idea for a staff party I've ever heard.

(PsychoChomp, Mon 4 Mar 2013, 15:12, Reply)

Yeah, it's a bit shit. It's all paid for though, so I resent not going.
Better than nothing, innit.

Besides, there's thousands upon thousands of people working for my company in the UK. I guess they need to cut down on numbers somehow.
( Kroney, Mon 4 Mar 2013, 15:13, Reply)

Either invite all staff or don't do one.

(PsychoChomp, Mon 4 Mar 2013, 15:15, Reply)

OK. So you have 2000+ people spread around 200 sites in the UK
not including the staff on client sites, which number in the hundreds. Then there's head office, which also has over 200 people working there. You're rapidly approaching 3000 people. Where do you hold it and where do you get the money to pay for it all, plus accommodation?
( Kroney, Mon 4 Mar 2013, 15:17, Reply)

Do one per site then.
Or, you know don't have one.
(PsychoChomp, Mon 4 Mar 2013, 15:17, Reply)

Some sites have three or four people on it.
Shittest party ever.
