    I'll likely be finishing up at work next week so no party for me. but the boss is a tight arse anyway so there wouldn't be one. i'll miss out on all the normal christmas party things that every one's bound to talk about in here.

    I'd rather pick up soap in a prison shower than go to a party with the people I work with.

    I'll go to my college party though.

    Agree completely. It's bad enough working with them without having to socialise with them too!!!!

    Last time i went to one of these it was just horrible. A bunch of people who cant stand each other having a 'Partaay'. It was gruesome to be honest, Twas that bad, myself and my then boss ended up getting pissed at the bar for most of the night. I should have stayed at home and slit my wrists or something. Cringe!:o

    I haven't been to a Christmas work party since I moved departments. The majority of the people I work with now are middle-aged, have never worked in any other company and begrudge you any success. :(

    Maybe I'll go along anyway so I can verbally abuse them and then blame it on the drink later.
