Pooper

Passed some people in the lift, and they said "Have you got your costume ready for the Christmas party tonight?"

I couldn't bring myself to say that I wasn't going, so I just said "not yet". Bad, huh?

I feel a bit guilty about not going, but also feel chuffed that later tonight, rather than be at some lonely old bus stop, trying to get home, I'll be asleep in my bed.

Give me a bed over a party any day.

I must ask..

Why do you feel guilty about not going to something you wouldn't enjoy?

You don't really care about these people or what they think.

Enjoy and proudly display your defiance young lion!!

I don't particularly want to make a big song and dance of not going, I just don't want to go, but would rather my absensce go unnoticed.

Just feel a bit guilty for not being a 'team player'. But the emphasis is on 'a bit'.

If that company is a team, then the other side will win just be making a show.

Good call, if you ask me.
