I went to one Thursday at a bowling alley. I was the first to leave, too. I just can't stand that shit anymore. Seems the older I get, the less I want to be around these people. All they do is drink and bitch...

I don't like them personally. I go to my team's Christmas party but only because you have to and you have to maintain a certainstyle there.
Going to corporate parties are great because I don't work for them, I get shitfaced and try my hardest to get a girl's digits or laid. In my life I'm 3 for 9. Not too bad.

Urinating in the parking lot will win you big points.

Going to one tonight. I go becuase I want too. And not so I can hang out, but so I can win something good~ Boss bought ten grand of tv,s game systems, blueray players, etc from best buy yesterday, and then add on top of that 10 grand worth of gift cards.
Without prizes I wouldnt go. I spend most of my life with those people, no reason to go out of my way to do more. |

I absolutely hate company christmas parties and don't go unless it is practically required. My wife is going to her work party tonight. I wasn't about to pay for babysitting for that so I am staying home.

I could be slopping around in hip boots trying to pull a trout and these people I see for 40 hours a week feel the need to invite me to stand in their living room and act like I want to be there. So, instead of being in my wool pajamas on my couch I have to get dressed up and stand in your living room. It's ****ing torture. Let's go on a hike, or see an IMAX movie, or a museum or something...I see you every day from 8 to 5. What are we gonna talk about?!?!?!?? At least lets have something to talk about and new, don't make me stand in your living room and not drink too much. **** I HATE THIS TIME OF YEAR except for family. |

The other thing I hate is people feeling the need to buy gifts at work. UGH I hate that crap.

Mines next sunday night.Told the Boss yesterday I would not be attending.
Hate Christmas parties and my co-workers.Add alcohol and my big mouth. Not a good combination.Better to stay home with the kids.
