Can I go to yours instead?

You can come as my guest! The surgeons are hilarious when we're all out socially... in the office they can kind of be pricks, so it's fun to see their more 'human' side!

I'd rather be mugged & beaten than party with a bunch of phoney-baloney 50-something losers with a lousy comb-over trying to pick up the 20-something skanks who'd starve to death if they ever had to get a real job.
Merry Christmas, my aching a$$!
Those jerk-offs no more give a damn if I have a Merry Christmas than the man on the moon.

ahhhhhhhhhhh, the true spirit of the holiday. Doesn't it just touch your heart

Our parties are great!!!!

This year's is at The House of Blues.

What fun is Christmas without a good office party scandal!....

Now I work for a small company where everyone is allowed an opinion on the party and no one can come to terms with location, food, etc. So, it is now one week away from the date of the party and guess who has to plan it?!

John Bocabella?

ahhh the ex-expo.......Christmas parties are great if there is a lot of cool people you work with and they are handing out bonus checks........other than that , not a huge fan......all the phoneys come out......its amazing who's your buddy that night.....but the next day at work the knives are going in the back again.......with a bunch of friends christmas parties are a lot of fun

Just told the boss that I wasn't going to the party because I didn't want to have to go through the "bring a date" thing.

I think I just got out of planning it too!!

but then wouldn't she have to spend most of the night feeling guilty for you rebonding with your old buddy, the couch?

We've generally gone out to dinner in the past, just about 10 -12 of us workers only and paid our own way. But in the past 2 years we've had quite a change-over of employees. Most of the good old ones are gone, and the ones that are there now are mostly horrible, I don't want to spend my hard-earnd $ to go out to dinner with backstabbing, bi-polar bit****!

Merry Christmas

I have to go to 3 company parties...anyone want to go instead?

Mr. Top's is this weekend.... mine is in the form of a lunch this year... where we are exchanging the Secret Santa gifts.

I am in HR so am always conscience of party behaviour.... I will only drink one or 1 cocktails.....

Thanks SGH, You're right! What was I thinking

Ours are pretty fun.

My company usually takes over some trendy restaurant/club in San Francsico. My first one was on my 2nd week at the company, was hosted by drag queens and an employee did a strip tease on the bar.

The parties get pretty wild and someone always gets drunk and makes a fool of themselves (not me, not yet). This year's party is Saturday at the Supper Club in San Francisco. It is also our 25th aniversary party and we've been told it will be very "interesting." I looked up the Supper Club on the Internet and one of the rooms is all beds so that could make things VERY interesting!

I have been to Christmas Parties that were so dull i couldnt waut to get out and I have been to at least one where guys were taking turns making out with the bosses wife. Everyone is different, so I go. You never know what you might see...
