Do you have an office holiday party? I’ve always heard crazy stories about them, but I haven’t worked in an office for four years (I miss it!). Anyway, this chart made me laugh. Where do you fit in?

awsome!!!!!! excelent blog on Office Christmas Parties i really appriciate it good job nice article
Haha we go crazy in New Zealand! Remember one Christmas piously telling my best friend / co worker not to keep topping up my wineglass as I couldn’t track my drinking. He said the next time he saw me I was drinking tequila from a bottle :).
This post has ‘Mad Men’ written all over it! Love it!
Hahaha, I can so relate to all the English people’s comments on here. I’m English and work in London. It’s like a social faux-pas not to get really drunk at my work Christmas do, whether you want to or not! You’d be seen as boring if you didn’t get very tipsy and silly! Talk about cultural differences!

Oh yes I LOVE that inforgraphic of the drinks and who can drink what! Too funny! Have you seen the list by Anna Lefler > Predictions for This Year’s Holiday Office Party
It’s a hilarious read and soo fun to see what will happen at your office party (just try not to wear the outfit from #2 LOL)
This is funny! I’m from England and used to work at an animation studio in London. First Christmas party involved lunch at a posh private club followed by a whole afternoon and evening of drinking. Needless to say, everyone from the boss down to the relative newbies got stinkingly drunk. I think that’s the way in the UK. On my way home I fell down the steps in Leicester Square tube station and threw up in Earls Court. Classy.
I didn’t repeat this the next year!
hahah, hysterical! We had our company office party last night and our company coffee shop was selling hangover cures this morning. I work for a “cool” company and our parties are usually off the hook- for example, when we walked in to the party last night we were handed a glass and a cirque de soleil performer hanging upside down poured champagne into it!
Hoping for an early dismissal…
I’m the intern!
This is HILARIOUS! I just sent it to my old co-workers.
honorate, yes! haha, my friend says freelancers should get a box of wine to themselves. :)
this is hilarious! i just e-mailed the chart to my boyfriend, who has spent the past 2 weeks planning his corporate christmas party! thank goodness nannies are personal hires, we’d need another nanny for the grown ups alone!
kate, NO WAY! that is crazy/awesome/bizarre, i’m sure your brother’s party is going to be super fun this year:)
Really Funny!Where do you fit Joanna?I work freelance, should I feel free to drink as much I want?;)
LOL. I like that chart. I say there is a 2 – 4 drink minimum. Anything more is just too much.
too funny! I have our xmas party on Satuday and I think i have to end this picture out to my coworkers. Generally my policy {even though i’m in management} is to drink a couple of glasses of wine but no more. No one wants to see their boss, or coworker loser-pissed.
I’m a cog in the machine at a cool company! Ding ding! Our office party is tonight and this chart gives me the green light to get wasted :) (mostly kidding … I plan to just get to that ‘pleasantly tipsy’ stage).
The perfect guide! It’s the amount that will make the whole do humanely bearable that I need to find…..
