Office Christmas Parties!!

Best works party I ever had was when I was self employed and working alone.

Dinner at KFC, then down the pub alone to get hammered

Update.

He was released on bail yesterday.

Basically, it seems his wife was totally paraletic and everyone was making digs as he dragged her through the corridoor. He says he came outside dragging her, and I shouted out "slut"... Now I don't really use that in verbal context, so thats a lie. If i'd have seen a mega legless being dragged women, i'd have said "damm shes off her pickle, or shes totally smashed". I wouldn't have called someone a slut for being drunk.

He then says he pushed me over as I was sitting down, i got up and looked like I was going to throw a punch (again, not me, i'd have got up and asked him what his problem and what the f**k he was doing, not thrown a punch). So he just hit me... Twice...

My face says otherwise, i'd say a awful lot more than 2 punches. There was a girl trying to stand between us and push him away but he carried on like she wasn't there. Shes my best witness and confirms I didn't do anything wrong.

Im in a lot more pain today, face looks massive, black eye coming through, lips are about 4x the size of normal.

I have to go back to the police station tomorrow for more pictures.

Happy xmas eh... tbh, EVEN if I called her a slut (i know I wouldn't), it doesn't warrant this. And as for him, hopefully his xmas party will entail him ditching his wife, and picking up a GBH charge. I was quite perky yesterday, today i'm very much the opposite.

Moan over, just not wanting really to go out and talk to anyone.

I would say that's probably what he was thinking, so made that up as what you said. Don't they have CCTV?

Anyway hope it don't hurt too much - at least you can use the excuse that your drinking for medicinal purposes over christmas.

Of course theres also the possibility that he looses his job as well. Two girls at our place went to fight in Asda one lunchtime, both lost their jobs for bringing the company into disripute ( sp )

No need to apologise for moaning sounds like you've had quite a battering.

Get well soon mate, booze works, seems that he was just looking for some one to blame cos his mrs got trollied, and he was probably peed off that he had to take her home and forgo the party.

Wow this has come on a bit. I am well sorry to hear about your night Daimo. Really sucks i cant believe that he came at you like that. Strange what drink does to people and the way it makes them behave. I hope you you feel better soon and it doesnt ruin your christmas

Well i came away from my office party with a few bruises (not in anyway compaired to Daimo tho) i think they are from rather enthusastic thumb wars! I am not a big drinker in anyway, so you can imagine that after 10 hours of drinking a was alittle on the snoozeled side. The food was rubbish but the company was good. Half the office are bikers so alot of the discussions were based around converting the other half of the office to the dark side

Dam good laugh (apart from the resisent office perv groping my ass all night and despite being told to back off by one of the senior managers, still following me into the loos - hmmmm not nice at all)

And thankfully, i didnt have toooooo much of a hangover on sat

ooo and P.S i decided to wear skinny black jeans and killer heels, with a nice non reveling top and a cardy... much better choice than one of the legal girls who was wearing what only can be decribed as a nighty that gave nooooo support at all. Which would be cool if she had the rack to go with it.. sadly (for the boys) it was one of those moments where you just dont know where to look

Daimo - that sucks - hope he gets more than just a charge. Sounds like a typical night in Glasgow though.

Ours was the 10th - but like Fizz after being told that everyone in department are losing jobs, grievances , bickering, and back stabbing half the people didn't bother even try to bury hachets for the night and just didn't turn up. We pay for it ourselves ( though we are invited to the xmas drinks and mince pies with the councillors - they do honestly think that we their staff will turn up to celebrate christmas with the sods that authorised the redundnacies in thr firstplace) and even that didn't help Half didn't talk to the others, another member of staff organise to meet some in a bar after the meal knowing that we were all going osmewhere else and putting people in unpleasent circumstances.

such a shame after last years where we went to local hotel circus themed party night and everyone enjoyed themselves -(i was dressed a circus master twas great night and fabby photos)
I'm normally the one dressed up as Mrs Claus for Secret Santa not even that this year.
Real let down and wished i hadn't bothered

Xerox dont have one. Legal & General's was on the 2nd December which we were invited to as its the contract i work on. Thiers was free.

GWS Daimo!

A mate of mine works for a printing company - All the bosses were sent a printed invite to a slap up do that must have cost £100, whereas the workers (that had to print out the invite so they knew all about it) were offered £3 a head contribution if they organised a meal out amongst themselves

I had a great works Xmas meal - small company so everything paid for, but it was in our own time which never crossed my mind was a problem. Been invited to another one which I may not go to as it is in work time so I would lose pay to go to it.

I don't attend the "official" works xmas do, the people that go aren't people I would choose to drink with any other time of the year, so I don't make an exception for xmas

My shift has an unofficial drinks night, that was supposed to be tomorrow night, it's being put on hold until early Jan as people have to travel and probably wouldn't get home afterwards with the bad weather!
