We\u2019ve all been to those office parties, whether for your work or a friend or spouse\u2019s work, where someone at the party had a bit too much to drink and unleashed a verbal assault against the boss. And we\u2019ve all had moments in our lives where we wanted to take back what we just said.

I can remember attending parties where the alcohol was free-flowing and the food unlimited. Today there are a lot of liability issues that come into play. More and more we\u2019re seeing office parties that end up being a nice meal out with the \u201cgang from work\u201d. Everybody has a nice meal, a glass of wine and then they\u2019re on their merry way home. Sometimes these events are now even occurring at lunch hour. Planning an office Christmas party just isn\u2019t what it used to be. And you know that can be a good thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After watching the video below you\u2019ll understand why office party planners would rather have a more low key event lunch a lunch or dinner.<br><br>You can almost feel the emotion that the girl in this video went through the next morning. Can you just imagine how she felt going to work and seeing her boss for the very first time after this party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"If_you_are_planning_an_office_party_then_its_always_recommended_that_alcohol_be_kept_to_a_minimum_I_have_always_said_that_alcohol_and_work_even_in_a_social_setting_do_not_mix_The_video_above_proves_me_right_While_I_dont_know_the_outcome_for_the_woman_the_moral_of_the_story_is_to_keep_your_social_drinking_away_from_your_work_environment_especially_away_from_someone_that_you_report_to\"><\/span>If you are planning an office party then it\u2019s always recommended that alcohol be kept to a minimum.
