So I'm sitting here suffering from last nights works Christmas party, knees and feet killing me from too much dancing. Sore throat from shouting over the disco and sudden flashbacks when it made me think.
Have you ever done anything 'cheeky' at a works night out that maybe you wished you hadn't dunno
Have you ever said anything that looking back was slightly too much information than you needed to give :dunno:
Dawnie,
Personal policy has always been to avoid the 'works' party and only be involved/attending my immediate 'team' christmas gathering, where none of the bosses are there and we can talk freely and outrageously. Always more relaxed and much better fun than the more formal 'works' bash.
Had ours last night - no 'seniors' attended even though invited. Our company won't pay for a flask of coffee at an internal meeting so you can imagine their policy on Christmas parties.
We (30 or so) went to a city Indian restaurant, had a lovely meal - loads of chat and then the majority went on to pubs and clubs in the city. I didn't, not being a dancer or a drinker, but the others will have been dancing until 2 or so - if last year is anything to go by.
Maybe too 'civilized' for some but why go out, get bladdered, puke on your boss, embarrass your colleagues and wake in (someone's?) bed covered in sick and trying to work out if you still have a job? Doesn't sound like fun to me. dunno
My head hurts. I shall come back and answer this properly later.
lol

I did attend my "works do" this year and whilst I personally did't do or say anything outrageous I sure enjoyed watching those who did,its amazing how a bit of alcohol loosens the inhibitions of even the most senior members of staff.
I wouldn't know. There are 3 of us in the office this year and we're not having a 'do' :sad:
*him* on the other side, went to his second one last night. I'm sulking
*Her*
Have been to two already and the third and forth ones are next week :bounce: Dont get over excited though lol The first was the Bursars Coffee and cakes then second was our early morning pub breakfast. The third will be our department paid breakfast canteen style and the final forth one a buffet for my staff provided by me. Thats what happens when you work early mornings no one can ever be arsed to come out and have a do at night. Our building has an evening one :cool: with the normal disco buffet etc etc but for the last two years they neglected to invite us flipa Ive been to two in the past and I stayed relatively sober so dunno They certainly were not anything to get excited about anyway the highlight one year was the rather drunk building manager singing in what we called Castrato :lol2:
I was hoping mrs Leics brought back a lady from her works do :twisted:
Heckling Bob Monkhouse was probably the biggest mistake in a long career of christmas party balls ups.

I'm married to a senior manager at the same company and the party is local, I'd have a job not attending :lol2: :lol2:

Hell yeah!!!!
Oh, and did your legendary straightness get forgotten?
i have never been to a works christmas do and never will
its bad enough having to spend my working day with some of the people i work with so i would never want to socialise with them !
but by all accounts the same people year in year out get way to drunk and make a fool of themselves .... i just dont understand it all myself lol
I don't have a company do, and am quite happy about it!! lol
small company been there 8yrs n never had a xmas party,,,,,
but £100 pounds xmas box.
I regret making the effort to do my hair and look extra especially nice this year.
I've only ever been on one or two nights out with my own team, I usually gatecrash the one with my friends or at least people I like and want to sit down to eat with. My team are uncouth and aggressive drunks. Not fun.

You guys can come to our party anytime flipa
We had quite a big Christmas bash this year, fancy dress and all (70's 80's theme if you need to know) at a relatively local hotel with around 1000 people in total from other companies as well as mine.
Things were going well, food eaten, drinks aplently etc and some decent tunes being pumped out by the DJ when an unknown women comes up to me , gives me a snog, smiles at all my fellow colleagues (who are now mouth agaped) and says to them "It's OK he's Ironing Man!" kisses me on the cheek and then she walks off into the crowded room.
No idea who she was but left me facing 1001 awkward questions....!! blink

I was once passed in Lidl by someone who went "Yo Tweeky" very loudly. I dont know who that was either and luckily I wasn't with anyone.

I'm guessing they recognised you by your avatar then? Must have been chilly in Lidl. :giggle:
