that actually s a bit off the normal rate for them, I just checked and they average at 275 a night. But hey if you don't plan on getting wasted why bother with the room

It's an open bar. tongue

at one of my former jobs, the company wouldn't let us bring sig. others to the party and then made us buy drinks. (um, we do that informally all year; it's called "meeting at a bar after work" and sig. others are cheerfully welcomed.) holiday spirit dripped from the walls at that place, lemme tell you.

Hey, Justine, i live in the city. Should i open my house to your coworkers for the low, low rate of $200? Or $150 to crash in the garage?

Re: Our "holiday party" at work

All this reminds me of the Office episode where Michael Scott bought his employees ice cream bars as a bonus.

Good times
Good times indeed

I don't understand. Is this party mandatory? If not, why go?

Because it's a huge formal party. The one chance a year i have to get dressed up. And this one is a big one. The entertainment is rumored to be a musical guest, but they've been unusually tight lipped about this. Every 5 years it's a really good one. 5 years ago, a drunken me asked Jay Leno if i could take a picture with him. He obliged, but his security people didn't like it. I got the picture, though! big_smile

Well then in that case. Drink more than your fair share.

Re: Our "holiday party" at work

The rumors have started. Some say the musical guest might be Santana. That would be cool. Then i can stop bitching about the party. big_smile
