May your days be jolly and bright! This time of year holiday parties are the reason for the season, or at least a reason to get crunk in your office. Being as it is an important part of the corporate (and every other) world; an end-of-the-year party is pretty much obligatory. And since all of us at The Agency are super fancy, you already know, we\u2019re in the fast lane, from L.A. to Tokyo\u2026We\u2019re going to tell you the do’s and don\u2019ts of holiday party etiquette in the workplace:
\n[ul type=”check”]<\/p>\n
[li]1. Go to the party. If you don\u2019t, you\u2019ll probably miss out on one of the only opportunities you\u2019ll have during the year to speak face-to-face with the higher-ups in your company (or for that matter, meet them for the first time)! Also, your absence WILL be noticed if you decide you\u2019re \u201ctoo cool\u201d for the office holiday party.[\/li][li]2. Try to mingle with new people from different departments, and learn things about your new acquaintances.[\/li][li]3. Eat and drink (alcohol) in moderation. Nobody wants to end up with his naked butt on the copier (well, maybe you do, but it doesn\u2019t make a great impression on your bosses and coworkers). Do it at home, if you must.[\/li][li]4. Dress appropriately. We all like to strut our stuff sometimes, but an office party isn\u2019t the place, so try to keep your image professional and appropriate for your \u201cwork persona\u201d.[\/li][li]5. Remember to thank the people or person who organized the party. They put a lot of work into it, and it is just polite to do so.[\/li][\/ul]

<\/p>\n
[li]1. Arrive too late to actually enjoy the party or talk to anyone. Holiday office parties are for employees and bosses alike to relax and get to know each other. Don\u2019t miss out on the chance to score some brownie points.[\/li][li]2. Talk shop all night. You work with these people. Talk about something else (but try not to be too controversial). [\/li][li]3. Take pictures of your co-workers without their permission. Remember: Facebook ruins lives.[\/li][li]4. Drink too much. We can\u2019t stress this enough. One night of crunk can erase YEARS of hard work.[\/li][\/ul]<\/p>\n
Even if your office is small and more relaxed than a corporate environment, try to remember these dos and don\u2019ts so that everyone can have a great time, and no one has to worry about incriminating pictures or judgey whispers the next day (or for the next year). Happy Holidays from all of us here at The Agency! Cheers!\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
