 | kamylienne (77) 11/25/2007 | Semi-awkward, since my husband doesn't really care to hang out with my co-workers and he ends up sitting off to the side being anti-social and all (although I've found that I'm not the only employee that has that; last year, my office manager's husband sat in a room off on his own watching TV, and one of the boyfriends of a technician was definately feeling awkward and keeping to himself).
I wouldn't mind going to my husband's Company Christmas Party (though I'm not a fan of the upper management), but they don't allow spouses. Two years running, they had an employee end up in the hospital due to alcohol poisoning, last year one of my friends at that party punched another employee due to a misunderstanding, and one guy ended up passing out in an alley. I think they could seriously use a little spouse-enforced drinking limits.
