The (B)Advent Calendar - Dec 8th

Urgh... The Office Party!


We all know how these go, don't we? You get pissed, do something embarrassing, and end up being whispered about for the next few months... and it's still being talked about 8 years later!

It's usually at least one of the following options... if you're really unfortunate, more than one... and if you can answer to more than 3, then you really should think about a job change...

- You get drunk (most start off like this) and tell the boss what you really think of him / her.
- Girls, you get drunk and cop off with Spotty Herbert from Accounting... who spends the next 2 months following you around like a lovesick puppy...
- Guys, you get drunk and make a pass at your foxy boss... who drags you into the stationery cupboard for a quickie - and then fires you the first day back after New Year.
- You get drunk, photocopy your boobs, autograph the pictures and pass them out to the blokes as your Christmas card... and spend the next month cringing every time you see your bits pinned up in someone's cubicle...
- You get drunk, get into a bitchfight with Jane from Personnel coz you saw her "eyeing up" your fella, and then mysteriously find yourself transferred to the company's John O'Groats' branch.
- You get drunk and throw up on the boss' shoes.

Does your Office have a Chrimbo party, Ally? And if so, is it the party-from-Hell?
