Work Christmas Parties

Any of you horrible cunts got any planned?
We're going to BOUNCE, Old Street apparently.
I shall be breaking my sabbatical and having a few pints, which I might end up regretting.
You cunts?

Why not? One thing I do miss about not drinking is the social aspect of it, hence coming out of retirement for one night.

Not sure we’ll have one this year.

Maybe you've just not been invited, because you're a thundercunt, goose?

Back in the late 70s/early 80s, a team of us "bonded" at BT and had some MASSIVE social events - never, ever, went to a company organised Christmas Party; we'd selected a little group and that held itself together until we went our separate ways.
Ever since then I've felt uncomfortable at any works' do, so avoid them like the plague (right on cue there will be somebody along with a side-splitting comment along the lines of "They didn't want to invite you either really, but had to because you were on the payroll).
One of the advantages of spending time in a non-Christian country is not having to put up with all this shit.

I can imagine goose is the office know-it-all who no-one wants to get stuck with at the Xmas party.

Don't think we're going to have one "because of COVID".
Seems to be the go-to excuse for everything nowadays.

When I used to work in an office of 400 in the good old days we'd have bashes in Paris, Monaco, London....now I work in an office of 3 it will probably be the pub next door and a kebab

I imagine Faux Bare is the door mat who turns up to the Xmas party with his missus and then stands and watches while she desperately tries to get off with his colleagues.
That’s assuming McDonald’s do Xmas parties for their employees.

We do an afternoon one which goes on in to the night for the decent people, still on this year and anyone who doesn't want to go and there are a few due to Covid have to carry on working, no free afternoon off.

I was in a group of 60 plus last Saturday, 20% have now tested positive.
Unless you don’t mind the idea that you might catch it, I’d swerve any indoor gathering

They're not really a good idea any more from the point of view of straight white blokes. Stick your tongue down the willing throat of a female colleague and 14 years later you'll get cancelled by the #metoo lot.

I'm invited to my Mrs firms one, not a fan.
Ice skating in the west end.. Finger food and lots of free drinks..
Got clockwork orange at Fabric the next day.. I won't be swerving indoor parties, was at Egg last week with over a 1000.. Probably half unjabbed, hardly anyone got covid.
