Christmas Parties
It is Christmas Party season.
Time for drunken capers, inappropriate photocopier use, silly hats, drunken dialling, vomiting, low productivity, near death experiences and general embarrassment,
Every year there is a serious injury or death and people do things they would never do at any other time of the year like racially abuse taxi drivers and get arrested.
It is also the only time of the year that a visit to a strip bar is deemed acceptable and you can call your boss a c@*t.
What's worse is that they will remember long after you have forgotten.
Speaking from experience.
