Merry Christmas, Bristoe.

it takes practice.

Stop giving away the trade secrets. Please.

Merry Christmas.

What are you guys talking about?

I don't remember any "Christmas parties".

Merry Christmas. Amigo

And to you, and yours.

If you see that Chinaman friend of yours, tell him I said GFY.

With love.

That's probably the most annoying question ever conceived.

he will be down the 3rd week of next month to blast ducks and pigs, i'll make it a point to.

Coworker previously worked in a management position at Fidelity. Christmas party was for employees only, free bar, and in a hotel venue. Employees were encouraged to book a room to avoid liability for DUI's, etc. Was jokingly referred to as the INFidelity Christmas party.

Company I worked for in my 20's had some pretty wild Christmas parties. The first couple I attended had open bars and great 'fun' was had by all. The year after that they went to drink tickets, with 2 being handed out to each employee. Somebody thought it was a good idea for me to be the one handing out the tickets. Mistake for them, win for everyone else. The next year I was in management and had to behave myself....

I don’t have to worry too much about our “office” get togethers. Everyone I work with is a retired Navy or Marine Corp jet aviator. The wives just have to put up with us and listen to all the “sea stories” and “there I was stories” they’ve heard many times before....😀

Many years ago a couple of the higher ups got pretty liquored up and got into a fist fight, everyone was afraid of trying to break it up for fear of being accused of favoring one of the combatants. When it was all over the fellow who had a reputation for being able to hold his liquor had really gotten the best of the other guy.

This thread proves we need a 24HCF Christmas Party. First year, Ken-TUK-ee. Then on to Land of liberals, hippies, and... Then where-ever deflave says he's living.

When I worked for a newspaper, saw some crazy [bleep] at the company Christmas party. I enjoy drinking but refuse to allow myself to get drunk in front of co workers.

Bummer we don't have video, or at least pics........

In my experience
if your get shïtfaced
at the work Christmas Party
and grope the boss's wife
you will get a rise......





but, probably not a raise......

Vinny

P.S. Unless her daddy really owns the company and she liked your member......a lot.

Careers end after Office parties.

My best Christmas party occurred when I was about 9 y/o. My Dad had recently been promoted to upper management and my folks hosted a dinner party for the bigwigs. It was traditional for the CEO to propose a toast after everyone was seated. My dad's buddy, Curley, gave me an inflated whoopee cushion and told me where to place it when everyone stood. The CEO's wife was a large woman and she stunned the room to silence when she sat on the cushion. I thought that was the funniest thing I ever saw and so did the lady and other attendees....w/ the exception of my parents.

Tracks is dead on. Management knows, "In vino veritas", and finds out: who will be the fool with a client; who can't keep his pants on (and give the company lawyers busy with the sex harassment complaint); total the company car after one two many during lunch, etc. Regardless how expensive, it's worth it when deciding who to fire. A company party is not really a party.

I don't know if bosses hold Christmas parties specifically to see who will make a scene. But common sense should tell everyone that the last place you want to show your ass is in front of the people you're going to have to work with every day.

Unless you work for the Japanese, of course. Typically, they're as stoic as soldiers during inspection while working. But party time is party time.

Next day it's business as usual, however.
