Office Christmas Parties
Today we had our office Christmas lunch.
One word- Amusing.
Unlike the usual office Christmas parties in Australia, where free wine has people stocking up their arms full of glasses 'just in case' it ever runs out - this christmas lunch was a pretty tame affair. I remember in Sydney the office party we had at our data entry place ... people were totally tipsy & beyond with the younger staff initiating a 'DATA ENTRY, DATA ENTRY ' chant by the end of the night.
No No today was much more tame - and not that that was necessaily a bad thing :-).
At any rate the lunch amused me. Here is a 10 stage snapshot of how it felt on the ground:-
STAGE ONE: Is it me, or is it really stiff around here?
STAGE TWO: What do we say when there is nothing to talk about?
STAGE THREE: I am in a dodgy seat....So where is the wine?
STAGE FOUR: Did someone order the wine?
STAGE FIVE: Fill my glass with wine... I mean, to the top please
STAGE SIX: Anyone for a refill?
STAGE SEVEN: I am LOVING this wine!
STAGE EIGHT: Everything seems more rosy, maybe its not as bad as I thought...
STAGE NINE: Is it me, or is everyone really happy around here?
STAGE TEN: So let's make a toast - Here's to our amazing workplace!!!
It's amazing how accurate that really is for my afternoon.
Definately amusing.
