I'm off to my jobs Christmas party in about ten minutes....
I'll try not to get too wasted and say things in front of the boss that will get me fired, although I would love to. Wish me luck...with half of the staff being new, this could be a long one! :crazy:


oh, and cheers! :toast:

1. TK421 - why are you not at your post? TK421 - why are you not at your post?
"Faulty transmitter?"

"No. I wish. Office Christmas party."

"Sorry, man. Drink one for me."

3. OK, just remember:
Don't dance drunk on the table, and don't sleep with (a) your secretary, (b) your boss' secretary, or most importantly (c) the boss' daughter!

6. Say hi to Vader for me.
And give the Emperor the finger. Say it is from me. And to "force this" when you do it.

8. Vader ( of sorts ) will definitely be at the party, but we call her "boss"
and she could teach Vader a thing or two about evil, trust me on this. :D

9. You'll have to let us all know later which was more painful:
Getting capped by Han Solo or the office Christmas party. I'll wager the Christmas party.

10. UPDATE: the so-called Christmas party was full of newbies...
Edited on Fri Dec-21-07 12:04 AM by TK421
to the organization, and many of them are pretentious assholes ( and trust me..I'm being very kind there ) who think that by kissing ass in this place will get them somewhere. They are young, and I suppose you should forgive them for that, but their attitude really pissed me off. When one of them arrived ( with their FIANCE ) they proudly pronounced that they brought couscous ( did I manage to even spell that correctly )? and that it is a very popular dish...and the fact that I have never tried it somehow put me below their level of...........well, YEAH...I'm not even sure what the fuck that level was supposed to be, but I wasn't impressed in the least! AND the couscous tasted like dried-up rat turds! Yeah...and I never even tasted dried-up rat turds.. but the stuff must come pretty damned close to it!. Fellow DU'ers...before you flame me for that...perhaps I had bad couscous...or however you spell that shit ( I never heard of it in the 80's, so it must not be important ).


Back to the pretentious part of my rant....there are so many people out there with titles that come with their miserable jobs...but that title may give you something of an ego. Don't let that happen, please....or I will have to come along and SHOOT YOU OUT OF THE FUCKING SKY AND BRING YOU BACK DOWN TO EARTH WHERE YOU BELONG!!!!!!!! .....Uhhhmmmm....anyway... in my job, I have been there for seven years now, and am training people to take positions ABOVE me..uh-huh, you read that right...this is also a non-profit organization, so they have their limitations concerning how far they can reach into human rights and civil acts.....they ARE protected, in a sense...


Now I'm ranting, and just plain upset at the moment....but..........
