re: How to Address the Company Xmas Parrty

Went the first year I was with my company because I thought it was pseudo-mandatory. Turns out I way over-thought it. I was single at the time and didn't want to show up alone, so I just hired an escort to come with. She was nice enough but kept dropping pretty bad vulgarity when I was having small talk with my bosses or co-workers. Anyway, I got a little too drunk and she got way too drunk and we ended up having to catch a really awkward ride home with my boss's secretary. So I can't emphasize enough how important it is not to bring a hired escort to this party. I know it seems like a good idea at first, but trust me.
