It’s actually going to be mandatory to participate in games at our work Christmas party.
Where did Santa go?
Where did the meaning of Christmas go?
Where is it stated that it is mandatory to participate in stupid arse games at work Christmas parties?
NO WHERE!!!
Now leave me the hell alone so I can enjoy my wine and one day of the year where I am not nagged or whinged up at by anyone.
Noooooo! Instead there will be parcel parcel, awards and whatever group activity they can think of!
Why? Why I ask?
Why should I participate on the day I want to relax and not do anything that requires using my brain?
And if you don’t participate, then what are you? Scrooge? Anti-Christmassee? It’s a word!
I am happy to go along but when I have to pay for my own Christmas lunch and then have to be told that I have to participate in games then I say… bugger off!
I don’t want to. I don’t have to. And na ah!
Tomorrow is the D-Day. I have to pretty myself up and be all I LOVE CHRISTMAS and Jingle Jingle but if anyone, and I mean anyone, makes me wear a hat and guess who the celebrity is, I will chug my Sangria and run to the nearest pub.
I love Christmas. I do. It’s just that I don’t like being told what to do (one of my positive attributes) when we are supposed to be celebrating a very long hard year at work and toast it all away.
Hopefully my bosses surprise me by leaving me alone to drink my Sangria!
UPDATE
My Christmas Day lunch ended up being quite nice. Only one game, parcel parcel. And I won. A doll with chocolate inside. And the food was lovely. There was no musical chairs or any stupid games. It was lovely.
I was able to relax and enjoy the day.
