This isn't really employment law news, just a friendly reminder.  It's office party time.  When you go, don't forget that if you're smart, your emphasis will be more on the "office" than the "party."  Check out the advice you find here and here.  It's worth reading and heeding.

Have a good time, but remember that you're at a business function.  Act appropriately and you will benefit (or at least not self-destruct).  Behave badly and you might just find yourself at someone else's holiday party next year.
