I once had to investigate a grievance from a Christmas party because an employee's wife (also an employee) gave another male employee a bj. I mean, who raises a grievance? I suppose the investigation did lead to the wife and other bloke being dismissed, but, **** me, a grievance :rolleyes:
Christmas parties can **** off imo.
Don't you hate pretty much any social interaction though?
I don't mind them - any time work pays for my drink I can cope with. Just tend to talk to the people I like anyway.
Missing mine this year . instead I will be sitting by the pool in Brisbane, reading a good book and drinking a cold beer. 2024 can really really just **** off

In all my 40 years on Earth I have had one work Christmas party that I've actually enjoyed. Back when I was working at The British Museum. They knew how to throw a party. I had my work shindig yesterday and left after 2 hours it was appalling.
