Holiday Parties

My office is throwing a big shin dig at a local pub. We get to choose what kind of food we want. But would I be too much of a pig if I opted for more drinks, cocktails, than actually eating? I mean this is an after work type of deal and I don't get free drinks all the time. I mean should I cash out?

Well the ones that I have always been to where it is open bar you can bet that the people take advantage of it. That is why you usually have those embarassing holiday work party stories to tell the next day.

I'd say if they offer the option, then it would be okay, but I don't think I'd suggest more drinks instead of food, unless it's a very informal bunch of party animals that you work with.

Have a great time, anyway.

My workplace doesn't have a party. They continue to pay you poorly and give you even worse shifts.
Happy Holidays!

My family does however have a party on Christmas eve but we stopped going to that a few years back.

My family has a Christmas eve party too, and I try to avoid it as often as possible. Not this year.

Anyway, I don't think it makes you look like a pig, but I would be careful about how much drinking I did, unless they are a pretty informal bunch.
