⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why Your Office Holiday Party Is A Secret Evaluation — And Possible Job Interview⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:
In my 20s, I always skipped the office holiday party. I love partying. I enjoy drinking. And a lot of my coworkers were young and attractive. I simply never heard of anything good coming out of that mix. Like: The risks (doing something foolish, losing respect) FAR outweigh the potential gains (flirting with someone? Or, maybe hooking up with them if you’re really really discrete, but that felt unlikely in any of the places where our offices had parties.)
