Here it comes. The shittiest time of the year. Don’t get me wrong. I love cold weather and all.
The thing I despise most of this time of the year is the damn holidays. The times that people want to get together and do stupid social shit. I’m not anti social or anything, well maybe just a little bit, but I can’t stand getting together with people I rarely talk to and listen to them talk about themselves.
At work this year, we are having our mandatory Xmas party a little early to make sure that the scheduling will allow all employees to attend. Don’t get me wrong. They usually rent out a nice place and everything to hold our party, but I just can’t stand most of them. I have to work with these bastards 8 hours of my life every day (minus 2. sometimes). The last thing I want to do is spend ‘me’ time hanging out with these fuckers.
I figured this year I would break my arm or have my liver fail so that I could get out of going to the Xmas party. Yes. I hate them that much. I love my job and really don’t mind working in the place, but I just can’t stand the people. The thought of spending one of my evenings with them makes me want to go and burn down the restuarant they reserved the night before the party.
Here’s what really sucks. I will probably end up going. I figured I will just show up and drink. And then drink. And maybe drink some more. Until I’m numb, dead to the world, and floating facedown in the river.
