'[We're] getting banned from Chili's': 10+ Office holiday parties that went totally sideways

Work parties are an anomaly. You spend every waking moment with this ragtag group of people, and then suddenly, the drinks start flowing, the vibes start to shift, and the next thing you know, Linda from HR is dancing on a table with a confetti cannon in hand. That's the 'Work Party' effect that none of us are ever ready for. Professionalism gets thrown straight out the window, and debauchery quickly outweighs the allure of shareholder recognition and quarterly goals. 

Because when the bar tab is an end-of-the-year write-off for your boss, they better keep those drinks flowing! 

So for those of us who gladly nurse a mid-week hangover at the expense of the company, you've had your fair share of laughs at the company holiday party and likely won't let your coworkers live it down. Keep scrolling to chuckle at some other work party stories where things went sideways–because we all know that nobody can resist the allure of a Happy Holidays happy hour on your CEO's dime.
