As long as you can hold your liquor, not act like an bumhole and don't drink and drive, there shouldn't be a problem.

that's a lot of ifs

I remember one year, getting out of the Metropolis after the party, I had to hold on to a tree for a few minutes. lol

I've seen 4 guys getting fired over the course of 20 years for being bumholes/gropping ladies or being too drunk at a xmass party.

Isn't Ubisoft's motto "we will grope you?"

All of these 4 dudes worked at one time at Ubi.

My wife and I always run the front desk and I steal drink tickets. The system works.

Oh yes I can... that's why the 2hours at the office party instead of 4hours of fooling around and seeing the kids getting hammered while I cant cuz I need to drive.

plan is: drive to the pub, have a pint, go to the venue, 2-3 more drinks and food and ciao bye back home to party HARD LIKE IT'S 1999!

I'm surprised HR didn't consider this as "newfie discrimination".

Not a word of a lie, we left around 7:30 and I cleared the tab and told the manager to start a new one and I'd come back tomorrow and clear that one, there was only about 8 guys left, including my Manager.

They got kicked out less than an hour later, and had rung up another $1400 tab.

What a (frank)ing embarrassment, she wanted me to can them all..

We fired a guy who went to DC with two other employees and were given the credit card for 5 meals over the 2 day stay. He bought a bottle of Macallan 21 in a bar for $1400. (frank)ing idiot.
