I don't know, it can be a pretty laddy environment at times, I bet I come out the rotter, wuss, whatever. We shall see, stuff like this tests my social anxiety like mad, I'll be stressing like mad over it for ages. But I had to help a mate out. Such is life, innit.

Gonna be awkward having to work with the guy, think it was just the drink but soured the night tbh. Not a fan of Xmas dos, tbh, and it was the first of four of 'em!!!

Originally posted by endo View PostHad my little bro to stay last week, cuz he’s started a new job in London. Anyway, he had his Christmas do on Wednesday, and it culminated in one his direct reports being escorted from the venue by security, having started a row with a senior manager, and screaming from outside how she’s going to kill her. Gross misconduct and dismissal, apparently. Some other (old) dude who reports to him passed out on the dance floor and then got locked in the toilet, semi-conscious. This is a fairly respectable organisation, but it sounds like a ****show.

Also, some people are idiots.

Years ago I went to a work do at a hotel which descended in to anarchy when the bar closed, they pulled the shutters... Then a 'workmate' broke in to the bar and started serving everyone drinks again. The bar staff, hotel manager and work senior managers where all involved in some late night arguments.

The group backed campaigners who say having no hard shoulder puts motorists and recovery workers at risk.
Smart Motorways are being branded a safety hazard. 16 crashes on stationary vehicles in a year on 100m of road, on non-Smart road (1,800 miles) it was 29 crashes.
Another one where Mr Magoo can see the deaths they cause before you install the first camera, but who cares when what you're actually aiming to do is install thousands of miles of speed camera tech?
