I went to my office Christmas do on Friday. I flirted with three people and was sick on the way home. The taxi driver threw me out and I had to walk five miles. It's a wonder I'm still alive.

See that never happens when you work at home.

Bed can we open this u a bit to include librarians? I really like the librarian at uni but then again I may be confused due to the constant erection I have from being around so many books.

I second Bitchie's request for the shop assistants crush thread (and you're not the only loony bitchie) as I too would be adding stories.

Biggest office crush was back at the start of 2001 at the ISp I used to work at. But unfortunately it was my boss and even worst I didn't decide she was a very cute brunette with stunning (censored) untill some way into my three months redundancy notice. Talk about really bad timing.

Quite looking forward to the xmas do's I'm going to this year. If only because I have a sneaking suspiscion that my current boss is trying to set me up with female memebrs of staff.

Okay, I’ve done it. Go and post. In fact, please go and post, cos it’s the first topic I’ve started and I’m terrified old school Barbelith are going to sent my thread to Coventry, in order to teach me a lesson in advanced topic abstracts.

Sax - count your blessings. My one and only office party experience would have ended with some fab snogtastic action with my manager who I’d fancied for a while, if only I hadn’t just thrown up outside in the cool night air. The evening ended with her drunkenly lurching for me, and me squirming away, newly-sober and aware of my pukey gob. Man, If only I hadn’t necked that last Benedictine and Brandy, our boozy cycles would have been perfectly synchronised. So near yet so far: at least you got your flirting over and done with before puking.

actually, I LOVED the topic abstract.

and I need to go to parties with you lot - there's never any puking and drunken lurching and...wait, maybe there is only I haven't been invited. BASTARDS

Aha!

She got back in contact and wants to meet for a drink!

What a great way to start the week.

One of my customers just canceled some days they had booked but I mean what's eating and paying rent over Xmas when you've got a date!

Yey Reidcourchie!

So, here is what happened at my work Xmas party:

Team-leader hid the remote control with the glow in the dark buttons before I went to the party, although I tried to explain to people how I was infatuated with it, but they thought I was crazy (since it was before I was drunk).

Party was in a marquee by an old abbey type place, and there were fireworks, and a chocolate fountain, and I was on the Wild Service Tree table.

After much wine, I spent most of the evening talking to the guy who sits two desks away from me. It all seemed to be going well until I asked him if I could kiss him. He declined, and then I have no memory of what happened after that.

Anyhow, I mailed him and apologized for being so drunk, and we've since talked on IRC.

Yey Squirm!

Hrrmm, he sounds shy. They're usually the tidy ones.

Squirmelia

08:47 / 13.01.04

I haven't seen the remote control that I was infatuated with for a long time, and am wondering what happened to it. Maybe it got dreadfully upset, or maybe it was the one that left a strange post-it note on my monitor. Oh my.

Being stalked by an inaminate object. What a great way to start the new year Squirmelia

And Reid, how did the date go?

Bed Head

13:03 / 15.01.04

Yeah, but Squirmelia, whatever happened with the enigmatic co-worker? And Reid, how’d your date pan out, man? Really?

Now that the Christmas specials are over with, a return to normal programming is surely in order with series two of this enthralling thrice-weekly-with-an-omnibus-on-Sundays drama, because series two is where all our cosy expectations get turned topsy-turvey:

Gasp! At the amazing secret harboured by the co-worker!! Thrill! As the evil intent of Reid’s date becomes apparent!! Swoon! As the remote control begins to assert itself!, that sort of thing.
