Some years we have, but normally someone will send an email about it and it will be largely ignoredDo you do secret santa?
I used to be a bit of an organizer with another colleague but once they left it kind of fizzled out as I didn't want the hassle of getting everyone together on my own. You'd send an email and the replies were like:I have enjoyed the few we have had, not had one since covid hit and the guy that organised them has now left so i cant see anymore happning.
If a workplace insists on holding a mandatory social event, the company should always pay and it should mostly be during or close to work hours. I have no interest in paying money to spend time with a ton of people I barely tolerate in the name of "socializing" and I definitely don't want to do it on my own time. It's criminal that your company doesn't at least pay for dinner and drinks!Do you enjoy them or avoid them at all costs? Have they gone dramatically wrong or just plain boring? I've never encountered one where anyone has been sacked but you always hear all the stories
A few years ago I used to love them, but my team changed, my hours changed and now I just couldn't be arsed. Plus are work doesn't pay for them so it always ends up pricey. And don't get me started at diving the bill at the end of the meal! Absolute carnage where you always feel ripped off
