Our holiday party announcement was made, so I got to talking to my coworkers about past holiday parties.

Apparently, one guy went up to our (now retired) Jewish CFO, and said in a loud voice "Hail Hitler!" Another made some inappropriate comments to some bigwig politician who was attending.

Share yours here.

Wow, I hope the CFO bashed his face in.

Unfortunately not, the CFO was close to retiring then, and this guy was a huge 6'5" behemoth of a man.

In my first job, the Actuarial Department holiday party was held at my boss' apartment. He was about to leave for Aruba with his girlfriend the next day and they hadn't done my annual review, so well into the festivities he and his boss and I trooped back into his bedroom where we discussed my performance for the year. It was totally G-rated- the bedroom just happened to be a convenient place to have a private discussion. But, it still sounds titillating. The department pot-head was annoyed because he thought we'd gone off to smoke some wacky weed and hadn't invited him. (There were no illegal substances involved.)

This incident didn't get him fired. He had to sit down with some people, go to sensitivity training, etc. But he did get fired by April of the following year.

Wasn't actually there, but heard a story of some guy who tried to pick a fight with an Asian guy for no apparent reason other than to show off his martial arts skills.

It was a couple years before my time, but I was told that the company Christmas parties at my second company were very tame affairs compared to the heavy drinking bashes of earlier years. The party was always held a certain hotel ballroom and apparently a few officers and officers wives all decided to take a dip in the hotel pool one year with their party clothes on. MADD was just becoming a force to be reckoned with at the time so the word came down from above after that incident that sobriety would be the order of the day at future parties. The ones I went to were downright boring.

Depends. I've only attended two types. Extremely stuffy and long, or really fun and loud with lots of drinking.

Didn't you say you had only been dating the girl for a few weeks? Going to a business party is a big step.

I didn't think it would be a big deal as long as I avoid lengthy conversations. I hadn't planned on inviting her to my christmas party.

Take her to Cascades instead.

I wouldn't want to go to a business Christmas party after a couple of weeks of dating - it's a waste of time. Your call, though, and it sounds like either the choker chain is already tight, or you're out there setting the bar way higher than you're going to appreciate down the road.

Just boredom. It was either that or play PS3 this weekend as we already have something planned. The main reason I said I'll go is, she is headed out of town for three weeks and that would be the last time I'd see her for the rest of the year.


Cascade is for kids.

JERRY: Have you thought any more about that trip?
VANESSA: Yeah, I've been thinking about it.
JERRY: You know, my friend told me about this great place in Vermont.
VANESSA: I don't know. I just worry about trips like this.. It's a lot of pressure.
JERRY: It's great! It speeds up the intimacy level. It's like putting the relationship in a time compressor. Where we would be six months from now we accomplish
(snaps) three days.
VANESSA: Oh, so you want to move our relationship into Phase Two..?
JERRY: Exactly. I love Phase Two. Extra toothbrushes, increased call frequency, walking around naked.. You know, the presents get a lot better in Phase Two.

I admit, that is part of it. I'm hoping to increase her comfort level without letting her get too comfortable.

My husband is in the military... His holiday parties consist of a potluck, watching a movie/playing video games, and small talk. Some people bring significant others, some bring friends, some bring parents. Overall, boring but bearable.

ETA: No booze.

I guess the attendees should have been thankful they didn't decide to take a dip with their party clothes OFF.

Anyone got some more stories?

One from a couple years ago went something like this. This dude at my work commented on a pregnant co-workers rack. Her bf took offence and followed the dude, caught up to him in the washroom and punched him in the face, giving him a slight nose bleed. When the injured dude got back to the table, his gf was like "where have you been? why were you gone so long" and he was like "well excuuuuse me, but I just got punched in the face". Bitch poured her wine on his lap.
