One other thing I’d really like to say is newer laptop operating systems are inclined to allow much more memory to be utilized, but they additionally demand more memory simply to function. If people’s computer is unable to handle additional memory as well as newest program requires that memory increase, it may be the time to shop for a new Laptop. Thanks

Don’t drink to excess. If you are given to drinking to excess, don’t go to the office party. Still, Evil HR Lady is to be commended for this article: a lot of people just assume that “nice people don’t do this” and don’t want to deal with it.

The thing is… stuff sometimes just HAPPENS!

From the boss’s end, and as Mme Lucas has hinted here on a number of occasions, end-of-the-year Yuletide bonuses, while possibly more expensive, are far more appreciated than office parties. This could be a cash bonus, or it could be airline tickets home to see family, or whatever.

Heck, even a nice little lunch ON COMPANY TIME is great. But the company probably won’t be springing for the really snazzy Champagne anyway, so there’s no point in getting sloshed around people you tend to take as much time away from as possible by default.

I say this as a business owner myself: if you refuse to institute a “What happens here, stays here” rule then you don’t need to have them & certainly should never make them mandatory (implicitly OR explicitly). How about dry parties to start with or a set number of drink tickets if drinking tends to cause all the issues?

Office parties are the norm of corporate life and you can not avoid the same. The maturity of participants is very crucial factor. The do’s and don’ts are to be establised assertively.

Yes, I have seen many an employee dismissed eventually over their work party antics. Work is still work so it pays to stay as sober as possible.
