Comments on: Parties! https://www.evilhrlady.org/2007/12/parties.html Everything to make HR better Mon, 01 Dec 2014 07:42:14 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=7.0 By: Truford https://www.evilhrlady.org/2007/12/parties.html#comment-204111 Mon, 01 Dec 2014 07:42:14 +0000 http://localhost/wordpress/2007/12/parties.html#comment-204111 I don’t mind “lunch hour” parties with pizzas or sub sandwiches or some other food brought in from a restaurant. (No “pot luck” dishes, please. You never know how they were made, and some people get sick!) The best thing about this kind of party is that it doesn’t drag on endlessly. People have to get back to work. It’s also easy to attend (no driving to some remote location, or someone’s house), and there are often leftovers for people to take home for dinner. (A nice perk for single folks!) But please don’t make me attend evening or weekend events, especially if they’re 50 miles away and I have to bring food. Sorry, but I prefer to spend that time with my family.

@hr wench – if you’re not the workplace psychologist then what do you do… besides being a paper pusher?

I am in HR. I am not and will never be the party planner. If you force me to plan a party it will be the worst party you have ever been to and then you will never try to force me to do it again. Thank you and good day.

PS I am also not the break room fridge cleaner-outer, workplace psychologist or nurse. Ok thanks bye!
