Crazy office party stories
Intern swore at the team lead? Manager got extra close to reportee?
Mine: saw an new joinee use pick-up lines on CEO's girlfriend (she worked in the same company)
A very senior manager who barely drinks, got too pumped up during our offsite. Started ordering shots for everyone, one after the other. We had never seen him dance, and somehow, he was the person who danced the most that night.
Eventually, he started openly cursing at a partner (in a playful way, but could easily be non playful), and somebody recorded this. I think the video circulated, and it's been weird for him since.
What's your best story?
My colleague got really drunk and started ranting about all the issues with the company, like most workers do when they’re frustrated.
After venting all her complaints, she suddenly broke down and started crying! I was scared for a moment and wondered if I had said something to upset her. But eventually, she admitted that she was really upset about not getting the promotion.

It could be telling your manager off or something spicier. A moment you can't believe you got away with in a work environment.
