DO’S and DONT’S of Holiday Company Parties?
DO’S :
With Company Holiday Parties happening all over the country, let’s go over some do’s and dont’s for employees hoping to have a good time,…….BUT,…not too good of a time.
* Do attend the party. Even tho the holiday season is the busiest of the year for many people. Declining the invitation can imply an individual doesn’t care about the company or his/her coworkers.
* Do behave. Even if the party is as jovial as jovial gets, remember….behavior is still being monitored by fellow employees and superiors.
* Do be gracious to the hosts. The company often covers the tab so be gracious when leaving for the night, thanking bosses for the food and drinks. Also…..avoid negative comments about the party, regardless of how bad something might be.
* Do ask about guests ahead of time. Most company parties encourage bringing spouses or partners to the festivities, but kids no,…unless the invitation specified it was okay. Many company parties are not ideal for attendance of children.
DONT’S:
* Dress with something festive, or conservative,….never over-dress.
*..Don’t get overly flirty with any co-worker,…unles you want to be the hot topic at the water cooler next day.
* Don’t overly indulge,..it is a recipe for disaster for your job.
* Keep discussions light, avoid discussing work, don’t say anything that one might later regret.
* DON’T DRINK AND DRIVE,…….Getting behind the wheel after a couple of drinks or more is never a good idea.
The World Registry of Wills suggests that if one still attempts to drive after too many drinks,…….satisfy oneself that you have a protection plan for your family at home by having already a prepared WILL with it’s location at the World’s Wills Locations Registry for the family’s quick retrieval.
