Posted: 12/19/02 - 08:51 Post subject: so i go to robin's work christmas party last night
and all of the mens look the same
same suits ties, colors and shoes
except me-
wimmins all have nice business looking stuff on
robin dressed me so i would look appropriately

My wife dresses me when we go out too. I liked my old job where I wore a uniform. Made getting dressed in the morning that much easier.

That maybe true PH but doesn't that polyester Burger King uniform get itchy?

I liked to think of it as a CoolMax uniform.

i wore a jacket and tie for 12 years of school and then after college 12 more years - i feel comfortable and since i'm fashion impaired at times - throwing on a nice suit is a safe bet for me

My husband would be in deep sh!t if it was up to me to dress him. He has all the fashion sense. I have none.

Smalltalk with people you hardly know at company Christmas parties is excruciatingly painful, no?

I'll be in your poop boat tonight, Joe. I dread this kinda crap. I have to make enough small talk during my workday and it truly is mind-numbing to have to try to keep a convo up with the wife's cow-orkers....
There's only so many times a man can hear a drunken debate about 'this year's picnic tablecloths'...

Etiquette question: if you get all liquored up and dance on a table at a holiday party but it isn't yours, does that count against you or your date the next day (assuming that your date works there and the two of you didn't just crash the party in search of booze and nibblies)?
Answer quick, the fate of the world hangs in the balance.
