Life Christmas party's - Page 7

The Mrs & I are heading to the first of 3 company Christmas parties. I don't normally go but I've only been with the company for 6 months and my boss personally invited me, I feel obligated. Not to mention, this one has an open bar so, it won't be so bad.

Just curious how many of you go to company parties and do you go because you want to or because you feel you have to. Merry Christmas!

So do you still have a job?

Had one last Saturday that had over 1000 people there. Got drunk and left without even eating. I ****ing hate those. Last night, the boss had the sales crew over and I went over there, got tanked, was mildly obnoxious, and ate great food. Had a blast. I'm friends with my coworkers, it's almost like a family if you're "in". It's good to be loved. I get obnoxious, and every one loves it. That rarely happens in life.

Damn...I can't imagine a group that big. My new company has 50 people (about 75 at the party including spouses). Any more than that would just be nuts.

I didn't know 950 of them, so it was pretty close to the same as yours. We were there just long enough to sign in. Grabbed a couple of drinks, went around and made sure we were seen, and then got the **** out.

It sounds like it was a pretty nice little party though. You enjoying the new place?

Yeah, so far. Only been there 4 weeks so far, but I'm starting to get the swing of things. Very laid back culture, cool industry, and all that jazz. So far, so good.

Round 2 tonight. Going to the Mrs party tonight at 7:30, which means I'll miss most of the 4th qtr. You think I'll miss anything?

Right on, man. I'd like to hear more about it, but I'll find a better forum to do that.
